Hello,

You can't read the info from the file itself, proprietary format, 
you have to load the report:

rpt.Load(rptName.ToString());
rptClientDoc = rpt.ReportClientDocument;

MessageBox.Show("Report version: " + rptClientDoc.MajorVersion.ToString() + "." + 
rptClientDoc.MinorVersion.ToString(), "RAS", MessageBoxButtons.OK,MessageBoxIcon.Information);

rpt.ReportClientDocument.Close();

GC.Collect();

Thank you

Don
