Does the Reporting classes have a getVersion method?

Your AJAX product has the following: 

Telerik.Web.UI.Common.Version.GetVersion()

Something like this should be available via all your products.

Get the loaded assemblies  AppDomain.CurrentDomain.GetAssemblies(), the ones related to Telerik Reporting, and their version 
FileVersionInfo fvi = FileVersionInfo.GetVersionInfo(assembly.Location);
string version = fvi.FileVersion;

Just, what is the idea behind getting the version?

For an About dialog of sorts.

For some reason, the ASP.NET AJAX team thought it was a good idea to provide a GetVersion() property.  Since Telerik is a big company, I thought they should consider standardizing properties and methods were appropriate.

I see.. reports are actually a library, where the get version info thing can be added. When the version is changed web.config, page registrations are updated.(one more place the version can be obtained appSettings).
