date for 2002 Excel.exe
I'm getting too many results when I try to find this myself. Can someone
tell me the date that is associated with the 2002 version of Excel.exe? Thanks! I use 2007 so can't tell by the file on my computer but am trying to help someone who uses 2002. Boze |

Do you mean the date format used? That really depends on your regional
settings! Can be dd/mm/yyyy, yyyy/mm/dd, mm/dd/yyyy or yyyy/dd/mm, or even with mmm iso mm. -- Hth Kassie Kasselman Change xxx to hotmail "Boze" wrote: I'm getting too many results when I try to find this myself.

No but thank you. Every program has a date that's associated with it's
files. Excel.exe with the date of 8/13/03 is Office 2003. I'm trying to find the date of Excel.exe that corresponds with Office 2002 "Kassie" wrote in message ... Do you mean the date format used?

Hi Boze,
< Every program has a date that's associated with it's files. Excel.exe with the date of 8/13/03 is Office 2003 No, that is not the case. My Excel 2003 has a date in 2007.

date for 2002 Excel.exe
24 July 2007, 14:37:42, is what I get when I do a DIR on Office10, Excel.exe.

and my Excel 10 shows a date of 16th Feb 2001.

date for 2002 Excel.exe
Thanks. That makes sense that the service packs would change the date.
Forgot about that. I can't use the Help About method because I don't have 2002 and the friend I'm trying to help is having a problem launching hers so she can't open it and look. Thanks for the suggestion though. Somewhere there has to be a list of the dates with the corresponding versions and service packs. All I've been able to find is the version and version number.. 10.. xxx. "Niek Otten" wrote in message ... Hi Boze, < Every program has a date that's associated with it's files.

Yes, that does help. I'll mention both dates to my friend. I doubt she
would've applied any service packs but she's had the computer in the shop so a tech may have updated for her.

But, Boze,
Why do you want to know? In most cases, once it's Excel97 or higher, the version is irrelevant.

date for 2002 Excel.exe
She exported some spreadsheet data from a web page to her computer. Now
when she tries to double click an xls she gets a window wanting to install Excel (or maybe Office) 2003. She only has 2002. She also can't find Excel to just open it directly, say from the Programs menu. She always double clicks the file. So.. I had her search for Excel.exe and she found 6 instances of it. I'm trying to narrow it down, by date.. to the one for 2002 rather than have her try launching each of the 6. I think she'd get confused if one worked... wouldn't remember which one it was. I just need to go over to her computer and look at I think. It's an hour away so thought she could wait til the weekend but she's fairly worked up about her 'broken computer'. Once I find if there's an Excel that works I'll associate it with the .xls and she should be set. Thanks for the help. Good reminder about the different dates for 2002.

date for 2002 Excel.exe
Yes, that would work well but the user is easily frustrated. I was thinking
the date, because it's visible in Explorer or My Computer, would be the easiest for her. Saving any steps (right-click, properties, look for the version) would be the best. I'll just go over and look at it. Or am I forgetting an easier way to determine the version? "Bob Phillips" wrote in message ... and my Excel 10 shows a date of 16th Feb 2001.

Hi Boze,
So she can find Excel.exe versions.
