Able to use $VERSION$ in output filename?

I want the output filename like this:
Setup1.1.exe
Setup1.2.exe
etc.

But it seems that the output in project options does not recognise $VERSION$...

Any workarround suggested?
Thank you!

#VERSION# would be a compiler variable, whereas $VERSION$ is an ordinary variable. However, a pre-defined compiler variable for storing the application version does not exist. You can try to define your own compiler variable for it and use it in both the project version field inside the IDE and also the output file name.
