Have you looked at the latex package 'mversion'? I use it and have it
working on my document, with it in the date place of my title it shows
"Build - \version", and the "version.dat" shows '2.0;0000' meaning
version 2.0 and it being increased in the '0000' field with every build.
You can put it in your header or footer, whichever you want.

Thanks
Sharon.
