Within Illustrator, Is it possible to open the current image in a specific version of Photoshop?

I assume the image is embedded within an Adobe Illustrator document, but you don’t have a copy of the image stored on your computer’s hard drive, correct? I think the easiest thing to do is just launch the preferred version of Photoshop, then select the image in the Illustrator document, copy it to the clipboard and then create a new document in Photoshop and paste the image into it. You might have to make note of the image’s physical size and resolution to avoid the image being resampled when creating the new Photoshop document and pasting the image into it.
