How do I find the version number of Excel that I am using, please?
Possibly a catch 22 question, because the method of identifying it may itself depend on the version number.
Anyway, most software applications that I use have a Help/About section in the menu bar, which tells you the version number.
I know that I am on some post-2003 version because I have a ribbon, and by default it saves files in .xlsx format.
Thanks.

Haha it was a bit of catch 22.
I find that I am on 2007. Because there is no "File" option in the menu bar! so no File/Help option.
But there is a tiny little blue question mark on the far right of the menu bar which I click-on to get online help. I put in Version in the search, and it comes up with a page that basically says that the version number depends on the appearance of the menu bar and ribbon. Well, that seems a bit, I dunno, hard to find the right word. Neanderthal?
Thanks Alkey. It seems I am on release 12.0, whatever that means in Gates-speak. I guess that is equivalent to "2007".
Which reminds me, one for the weekend. I am sure you have all heard it before:
How does Bill Gates count to 10?
1, 2, 3, 95, 98, 2000, ME, XP, 7, 8, 8.1, 10
Version 12.0 Excel 2007
14.0 Excel 2010
16.0 Excel 2016
Heh, now they only need to release one new version every year, and we shall all be in sync.
