Hi, I seemed to have lost the post I'd sent about trying to get the version
number of Excel that's installed using Early Binding;

yes, with late binding it's easy,
aExcel := GetActiveOleObject('Excel.Application');
ExcelVersion := aExcel.version;
aExcel.quit;

but early binding using something like

TExcelApplication.Connect;
ExcelVersion := ......

is difficult because I can't find where object 'version' is a property of.
Someone originally replied that it was of TExcelApplication but that doesn't
seem to work. Does anyone have any thoughts please?

Cheers


David

Quote:


ExcelApplication1.Connect;
ExcelVersion :=
ExcelApplication1.Version[LOCALE_USER_DEFAULT];

should work. If it doesn't, please tell us what 'not
seeming to work' looks like. :)
