How is it possible to find out the Versionsnumber entered in the resource section (Of the running exe)?

Use HRSRC FindResource( HMODULE hModule, // module handle

LPCTSTR lpName, // pointer to resource name

LPCTSTR lpType // pointer to resource type);

and
HGLOBAL LoadResource( HMODULE hModule, // resource-module handle

HRSRC hResInfo // resource handle);

Good luck,
Oleg.
