Yes, I'm telling you that. The VB functions are VERY limited, but plug-ins written in C++ can do a lot more.

Take a look at the first line of a PDF in a text editor to see what I mean about version number.

Of course, you should know that the version in the header is NOT necessary the actual version. There is also a way for updating the version using the /Version key in the document catalog dictionary. That cannot be determined as easily (except via a plugin or library).
