Setup Project: how to include version in Welcome dialog?

A typical setup project in Visual Studio .NET has the following string for
WelcomeText in the Welcome dialog of the project's User Interface:
"The installer will guide you through the steps required to install
[ProductName] on your computer."

ProductName evaluates to the value specified on the project's Properties
page.

But why doesn't this work?

"The installer will guide you through the steps required to install
[ProductName] [Version] on your computer."

In place of Version, I just get an extra space.  Is there a way to include
the version number in the Welcome dialog without manually adjusting it in
two places every time I build a new release?

Version isn't a Windows Installer property. Visual Studio's names for
properties sometimes match the ones you need to use, sometimes not. The
actual property name is ProductVersion.
