I have some projects built with different versions of VS2005 that require different run-time version. i need to display the assemblyIdentity to see which run-time is required to run the program. I need the information to include the specific VC80 runtime MSM in my WiX installer project.

{Edit}
While the binaries have been built with Visual Studio I don’t have a VS on the PCs where WiX shall be used. I am reluctant to install an Express version, since I am a guest on that PC.
{/Edit}

How can I conviniently display the embedded manifest? Preferrable with a small tool, command line tool would be OK.

    The PeStudio is a small tool that does the job. Including displaying the manifest in clear text.

    Additionally it displays all DLLs that must be present on target system. That helps to author the installer.
