What Office version is on CD?

[Charles E Finkenbiner]

Hi All,

How can I find out the version number of Office XP? I need to know what
version is on the CD, not my computer.



Thanks for any help,

Charles

Hi Matt,

That is the problem. I do not trust the version number reported by
Help|About.

I had Office XP installed and patched up to date until Win2000 crashed
(PFN_LIST_CORRUPT). I then had to start over with everything. After
installing Office XP again I then tried to apply SP3 (I have it saved
from previous update, in fact I have all 3 SP's). SP3 reports an error
that the expected version was not found and exits.

I then looked at Help|About and it reported that I had SP3 installed. I
know I installed SP3 before and the download is good. Since I did not
look at Help|About before trying to install SP3 I wanted to look on the
installation CD for the original version number and patch level.

So, I would like to know where/if the version information is stored on
the CD.


Thanks,

Charles

Charles,

I don't know of a way off the top of my head how to find the version from
the CD. However if you do have it loaded on a PC try this. Goto www.
belarc.com. Download the free advisor program. This software is amazing and
takes only 2 minutes to load. It will tell you everything about your PC
including hardware and software versions. Look towards the bottom to see
software loaded. You will love this software. Good luck and let me know if
this does the job.
