Steve,

You might let those who aren't using the right version know through your script, rather than have it throw errors. As Alan innocently demonstrated, errors tend to create unnecessary support problems, whereas simple messages do their intended job of informing.

The Framework script does this with a simple:

If InStr(CStr(Version), "7.0") <> 1 Then
        ' Do fun stuff
Else
        ' Tell them they need a better Window-Eyes
End If

This says, if they're running anything that starts with a "7.0" in the version number, tell them they're out of luck.

This will account for future versions as well, so that you don't have to keep version checking unless you take advantage of additional future features.

If they are running an older version, and they did accidentally install the latest, when you tell them they're out of luck, you might also give them a button that takes them to the script's website where they can download older versions. That's all up to you -- just a thought.

You need Window-Eyes 7.1 or later to use the new version of the script.

That is a slight paraphrase, but close.

Alan,

Can you provide the exact error message you're getting?
