Default How to ascertain what MS word version a document was created in?

Ask the person who created it. This information is not stored in any
reliable format with the document. I thought that the metadata
(ALT+SHIFT+F11) might have done it, but a document saved in Word 97-2003
format from Word 2007 shows that it was created with Word 11 (2003) and not
Word 12(2007).
