The Compact Framework does not support the AssemblyFileVersion attribute. Instead, whatever .NET version you give to your assembly (via AssemblyVersion) will also be its Win32 file version. Neil shows you how to give an alternate Win32 file version to your CF assemblies without resorting to command line compile. Go read it and let me know when you are back!
OK, so although I am an advocate of everybody understanding both languages, I have done the VB version for you here. Note that this will only work if you have not chosen to use the Root namespace in your VB project properties (which as I've said before is a bad habit anyway).
While on the subject of versions, it is worth pointing out that the Product Version of your file can be set with the AssemblyInformationalVersion.

Namespace System.Reflection <AttributeUsage(AttributeTargets.Assembly, AllowMultiple:=False)> _Public Class AssemblyFileVersionAttribute
Inherits AttributePrivate mVersion As String
Public ReadOnly Property Version() As String
Get Return mVersionEnd Get
End Property
Sub New(ByVal aVersion As String)
If aVersion Is Nothing Then
Throw New ArgumentNullException("version")
End If
mVersion = aVersion
End Sub
End Class
End Namespace
