Access Database version (without using DAO).

[dschwarz]

Hey,

I am writing an application to scan for access database on a network server. Then I am getting their version using DAO (ie. db.version). This works great, but it is extremely slow opening the databases.

I would like to get the version information about an Access database with out opening the database object. Does anyone know the format for an mdb file? More specifically, where to find the version information? Thanks much.

Well, I found an answer. Using
db.Properties("AccessVersion")
is much faster than
db.Version()
Thanks.
