How To Find Out What Version Of Excel I Have



Sit down and relax while ASAP Utilities does the rest!

Can anyone tell me how to find out what version of Excel and file was created in? I have a routine which inserts sheets into workbooks. However it fails on files that were used extensively in Excel 97. You'll see this near the bottom of the menu on the left side of your screen. You'll click Help if you see that instead. You should see the 'Version' listing under the 'About Excel' button next to a question mark icon.

Syntax

Version

expression.Find (What, After, LookIn, LookAt, SearchOrder, SearchDirection, MatchCase, MatchByte, SearchFormat)

expression A variable that represents a Range object.

Parameters

NameRequired/OptionalData typeDescription
WhatRequiredVariantThe data to search for. Can be a string or any Microsoft Excel data type.
AfterOptionalVariantThe cell after which you want the search to begin. This corresponds to the position of the active cell when a search is done from the user interface.
Notice that After must be a single cell in the range. Remember that the search begins after this cell; the specified cell isn't searched until the method wraps back around to this cell.
If you do not specify this argument, the search starts after the cell in the upper-left corner of the range.
LookInOptionalVariantCan be one of the following XlFindLookIn constants: xlFormulas, xlValues, xlComments, or xlCommentsThreaded.
LookAtOptionalVariantCan be one of the following XlLookAt constants: xlWhole or xlPart.
SearchOrderOptionalVariantCan be one of the following XlSearchOrder constants: xlByRows or xlByColumns.
SearchDirectionOptionalVariantCan be one of the following XlSearchDirection constants: xlNext or xlPrevious.
MatchCaseOptionalVariantTrue to make the search case-sensitive. The default value is False.
MatchByteOptionalVariantUsed only if you have selected or installed double-byte language support. True to have double-byte characters match only double-byte characters. False to have double-byte characters match their single-byte equivalents.
SearchFormatOptionalVariantThe search format.

Return value

Find Excel Version Number

How to find out what bit version of excel i haveFind

A Range object that represents the first cell where that information is found.

Remarks

This method returns Nothing if no match is found. The Find method does not affect the selection or the active cell.

The settings for LookIn, LookAt, SearchOrder, and MatchByte are saved each time you use this method. If you do not specify values for these arguments the next time you call the method, the saved values are used. Setting these arguments changes the settings in the Find dialog box, and changing the settings in the Find dialog box changes the saved values that are used if you omit the arguments. To avoid problems, set these arguments explicitly each time you use this method.

You can use the FindNext and FindPrevious methods to repeat the search.

When the search reaches the end of the specified search range, it wraps around to the beginning of the range. To stop a search when this wraparound occurs, save the address of the first found cell, and then test each successive found-cell address against this saved address.

To find cells that match more complicated patterns, use a For Each...Next statement with the Like operator. For example, the following code searches for all cells in the range A1:C5 that use a font whose name starts with the letters Cour. When Microsoft Excel finds a match, it changes the font to Times New Roman.
