Hello all!

Is it possible to determine witch version of Microsoft Office currently installed on a machine from the registry (or from somewhere else).

I'm know there is a "ProfileString" and the "PrivateProfileString" properties, but how do I use it?

And what if the user have e.g. both Office95 and Office97 installed on the machine?


Thanks a lot!

You don't want to use profile string or privateprofile string for that matter. They are used for ini files.
Look up GetSetting and SaveSetting.

These will read & write to the registry.
 
Thanks a lot. I'll try it out!
