Check out VBA help on Application.Version to disable code for users with older
Excel


If Application.Version < "10.0" Or Application.Version < "11.0" Then
MsgBox "This utility will not work in your version of Excel, vbExclamation
End
End If

You can use the check that Gord mentions and then branch to code that only
newer versions support. For example, if they are running 2000 or newer you
can branch to code that opens a form modelessly, otherwise your code will
not branch and just run it modally. Since VBA is interpreted, Excel 97
never branches to the modeless subroutine and you don't get a compile or
runtime error.

Sorry I don't have time to show an example but I hope that helps.

To avoid problems use in non US systems use

If Val(Application.Version) < 10

In Dutch it is 10,0 instead if 10.0 for example
