How to determine version of outlook

[Rodney Frisard]

Help! I have a database program that allows me to run command line
instructions. I have the target e-mail in the database and want to
issue a command line to send e-mail.

Problem: In the command line I execute

"c:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office10\Outlook.exe"

This works for office 2002, but come clients are running other
versions of outlook.

Does anyone know how to determine which outlook to point too??

Depending on what type of database you are working with (Access, FoxPro, MS
SQL, .etc), can the solution automate Outlook to create/display the message?

The version number of most programs, including Outlook, can be found by
clicking on HELP / ABOUT.
