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). -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org KateEd wrote: I need to find a way to simply identify the version of Word that a file was created in. |

In Word 2003 (and some earlier versions), if you set the View in the File
Open dialog to Properties, the version will be displayed. Note that of course Word can recognize the version only for current and earlier versions, not for later ones. -- Suzanne S.
