how to determine which version of MS Office is installed

[Tarren]

I have to write an auto patcher for all of the client pcs, but some are
running different versions of office.

How can I determine which version of Microsoft Office is installed? Do I
get it from the registry?

Thanks

You could look at HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Office and all the versions would
be listed in that key. You could also look at the folders in C:\Program
Files\Microsoft Office\ which would contain all the installed versions of
Office. It depends what you need to update.
