Checking outlook version   
MSDN link: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb905147.aspx

This does not work for Outlook 2007. The component guid that must be added 
is: {24AAE126-0911-478F-A019-07B875EB9996} (found from msi).

1) Do these GUID's change with SP's/updates? Would this guid be good for 
2007 no matter which SP?

2) Also when i look at msi for 2003 version of outlook, I can see only the 
guid: {BC174BAD-2F53-4855-A1D5-0D575C19B1EA}
     So wondering what this guid is for: 
{BC174BAD-2F53-4855-A1D5-1D575C19B1EA}?

3) Is there a documented place where these guids are published?

Thanks,
Param

Re: Checking outlook version   
There is a lo teasier way: find the path to outlook.exe (use App Paths or 
the key of the Outlook.Application object in teh regsitry), the just use the 
regular versioning API (GetFileVersionInfoSize / GetFileVersionInfo / 
VerQueryValue) to retrieve the version info.
