The quickest way to determine the version of Microsoft Word installed on the current PC is to run the following VBScript.
1 2 3 4 5 6 | Dim objWord Set objWord = CreateObject("Word.Application") WScript.Echo "Version: " & objWord.Version WScript.Echo "Build: " & objWord.Build WScript.Echo "Product Code: " & objWord.ProductCode() objWord.Quit |
Dim objWord Set objWord = CreateObject("Word.Application") WScript.Echo "Version: " & objWord.Version WScript.Echo "Build: " & objWord.Build WScript.Echo "Product Code: " & objWord.ProductCode() objWord.Quit
The VBScript creates the COM object Word.Application if Word is installed of course. It will then invoke the properties to retrieve the version information, which will output something like this:
Version: 16.0 Build: 16.0.9226 Product Code: {90160000-000F-0000-0000-0000000FF1CE}
You could also use the Microsoft JScript that runs on Windows Scripting Environment to achieve the same task:
1 2 3 4 5 | var objWord = new ActiveXObject("Word.Application"); WScript.Echo ("Version: " + objWord.Version); WScript.Echo ("Build: " _ objWord.Build); WScript.Echo ("Product Code: " + objWord.ProductCode()); objWord.Quit(); |
var objWord = new ActiveXObject("Word.Application"); WScript.Echo ("Version: " + objWord.Version); WScript.Echo ("Build: " _ objWord.Build); WScript.Echo ("Product Code: " + objWord.ProductCode()); objWord.Quit();
