So I have any .qwb file - How do I go about determining which version of Quickbooks was used to create that file? <br />
<br />
For example: I have a 2002 Pro .qwb file - Is there any way to know that it's a 2002 Pro version and not a 2008 version? I need to do this because I need to know which version of the SDK to specify so as to avoid using functionality not available to the file.<br />

How to determine which version of quickbooks created a .QWB file?

Software is any set of instructions that directs a computer to perform specific tasks or operations. Computer software consists of programs, libraries and related non-executable data (such as documentation). Computer software is non-tangible, contrasted with computer hardware, which is the physical component of computers. Software written in a machine language is known as "machine code". However, in practice, software is usually written in high-level programming languages than machine language. High-level languages are translated into machine language using a compiler or interpreter or a combination of the two.
