I have a file that is used across machines that use Excel 2010 & 2013.

I need the relevant Word Object Library to be available to all users but user of 2010 run into an error as the 15.0 library is missing.

Therefore, I need to run some code in the Workbook_Open code to check which version and then install the relevant library. Ideally I want to future proof and check if Excel 2016 is being used.


Thanks
 

Excel Facts

Why are there 1,048,576 rows in Excel?
The Excel team increased the size of the grid in 2007. There are 2^20 rows and 2^14 columns for a total of 17 billion cells.
It will be much easier to late bind your code so that you don't need the reference at all.
