Detect Excel service pack
 

Is there a good way to detect what service pack Excel is running?
Application.Version reports the same version number regardless of
service pack.

Do I have to use Application.Path to get the path to Excel.exe, then
use FileSystemObject to get the the DateCreated property of Excel.exe,
then compare to the file date of the desired service pack? Or is there
a better way?


Thanks,

Greg

Application.Build

Presumably there's a resource 'out there' that'll help relate potential
build numbers to the SP. If you find it maybe you can post the link.
