It might help avoid future embarrassment if you learned the technology
you bashed. Here's a random URL from Googling "DLL Version":
http://www.codeproject.com/file/fileversioninfo.asp
Note the APIs referenced there:
- GetFileVersionInfo()
- GetFileVersioninfoSize()
- VerQueryValue
So, you're absolutely right. There's no way for an app to know which
version of a DLL is installed. If it is written by a dullard.
