I've set the AssemblyVersion property of a project to 3.0.* to get automatic build numbers generated whenever I do a new build of my project. The build number generated is the number of days elapsed since January 1, 2000. This means that if I do a build today, it will be build 3703. I would like to start with lower build numbers. Is there a way for me to reset the base date to a date of my choice?

A: 

You'll have to use a macro and/or VS plugin to do this for you. You can find some information for older versions of Visual Studio at CodeProject or Codeguru.
