Hi ,\ni think we can do this with version number of any office file properties. To read properties for a perticular file please refer http://techrepublic.com.com/5100-3513-5838187.html

Visual Basic .NET.\n\nhttp://msdn.microsoft.com/vbasic/

It's an Excel file. Some other spreadsheet programs (like the one that comes with WordPerfect) might be able to open it.

It depends on Office version (Word version) if you are talking about Word.\nAny way re-Installing Office will solve alot of problems and saves you time and money.

Go to MS website: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/default.aspx \nDownload a trial version, which will be good for 60 days I believe.  OpenOffice is good too, and compatible with MSWord files.

Oldversion.com\nThey have older versions of a lot of popular software.

well, one thing, you need to know that visual Basic is something you program in. and Microsoft office is a collection of programs that help you create documents.

All office files have this feature, Right click on any Office file (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, etc) and select properties, You will see Custom and summery, in these two tabs you can type any thing you want, and in Explorer these info will be shown in the ToolTip and in the status bar.\n\nFor all other kinds of files, i belive this will be easy in the new Windows VISTA.

Normally if I have needed an older version of some program I do a search online for the program name and version number. \n\nGenerally people have them somewhere (like older versions of IE or Netscape or something).

You can try OpenOffice http://www.openoffice.org . It's a free office program, and it is pretty close in functionality to MS Office. However, if you open MS Office files, some stuff may occasionally be messed up, because Microsoft's file format is closed and it is very hard to reverse-engineer it completely.

if it's created in a microsoft format, the PC microsoft program by the same name should recognize it\n\nFYI - MS Works and MS Office/Word are two different programs\n\nif they are incompatible program or one is an OLDER version of the program, you may need to go under "Save As" and change the format - which to use depends on what programs you are using and you may need to experiment.

A free trial of a beta  for office 2007 can be downloaded here  http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/products/HA101687261033.aspx\n\nOr you can use Open office which let's you open word documents, edit documents and save them in  word document format (.doc).  It is always free and works very well.  You can download Open office here  http://www.openoffice.org/\n\nHope this helps
