I'm having some difficulty with a French user who has ppt 2002. It
looks like my program's failing when I attempt to get the version of
ppt that the user has and convert it to a double. It should be
returning 10.0.

Can anyone with French Windows and PPT 2002 verify this for me??

You'd need to do the following:

Press Alt-F11 to get into the VBA editor
Select View> Immediate Window to show the Immediate Window
Type: Debug.Print Application.Version
Press Enter
It'll tell you what version you're using.

Any help is appreciated!!

I don't have the right version of PPT to test for you but can suggest this:

Some versions of PPT ( 97 SR-1 that I know of, possibly others) return a string
that includes alphabetic characters for .Version

"8.0b" for example

CDbl(Application.Version) will error in that situation.

CDbl(Val(Application.Version)) is safer.
