Default Verifying Access Version used for currently open database - 08-12-2010 , 06:15 PM






I want to write a line of code to check the version of MS Access being used
by my clients, some of which have multiple versions installed.
I am distributing my application as an Access 2002 runtime, but want to know
what they're running it on.

Try: SysCmd(acSysCmdAccessVer) (and SysCmd(acSysCmdRuntime) to see whether
or not they're using the runtime)

Also,
Version returns which version they are running.
