oword=CREATEOBJECT("word.application.8") ?oword.Version 12.0The CLSID for all versions that I see on my machine (12, 11, 8) is the same, {000209FF-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}. I have Word 2007 and 2003 on this machine (I assume that 2007=12 and 2003=11, logic be exiled), and would really like to have a way to test my recent automation thingy on both. Is there one? A way, I mean.
