Answer 1

You can use the vbAdvance add-in which allows the setting of the version build. It is now freeware, but no longer supported. You can learn more and download it here.

Answer 2

Answer is you can't with native VB6.

Note that you can do this in VB.NET but not in VB6 - See this page from MSDN for differences between VB6 and VB.NET projects with regard to version numbering.

You could possibly alter the version of the compiled exe- see this question for some suggestions on this:
