[DUG] How can I tell what version of MSOffice is installed?

[Laurence Bevan]

Another setting in the registry also is
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Word.Application\CurVer. This will give you the most
current verson of Word installed on the machine e.g. it will return
Word.Application.11 for Office 2003.

Hi Steve,

I'd look in the registry.
I have Office 2000 on my machine and I have
HCLM\Software\Microsoft\Office\9.0\Word\ and \Excel my work mate has 2003
and HCLM\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Word\ and \Excel so I think checking
the registry is fine, you can also use that to get the install paths if you
needed them
