Testing Reverse Compatibility and Compatibility in General
Hi folks,
Im writing my current program in Excel 2002 with VBA. Its still in the early days but I intend to incorporate some MS Word elements aswell. One of my books puts Excel useage at: [Excel 97 - 10%] [Excel 2000 - 45%] [Excel 2002 - 40%] and [Excel 2003 - 5%]. Obviously Excel 2007 is out now, and I can only assume that useage for it is still low in proportion. I'm wondering when the time arrives, how I can test my program is newer versions of Excel than 2002....and possibly even test it in 2000. Do I need to own all the versions which I want to test in? Do I need to test in different windows versions aswell? What about people running Excel on a Mac...can I test for that without buying a Mac? How do the MVP's usually test their programs...do you or your company own all versions for testing? Thats not economically viable for me at this point. Thanks. |
