Depends, are you asking what is the latest version of Spry that is available? If so, then the answer is Spry 1.6.1 is the latest version, and is available from the Spry home page:
http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/home.html

Or are you asking how to tell the Spry version from a particular Spry asset file? If so, then when you open a Spry .js or .css file, the version is listed at the top of the file as in:
/* SpryAccordion.css - version 0.4 - Spry Pre-Release 1.6.1 */

0.4 is the version of the specific file you're looking at and 1.6.1 is the version of Spry the file is associated with.

Dreamweaver CS4 shipped with Spry 1.6.1, and CS3 shipped with I believe Spry 1.4, but you can update the Spry version using the DW Spry updater (linked to from the Spry home page):

FYI: Spry questions are best asked in the Spry forum:

Will post in the correct area for my next submission.

Q - I do indeed have v. 1.4. Can I only utilize Spry Update Extension for Dreamweaver CS3 -- which adds no additional widgets, or was there another update to add everything.

Thanks,
Jim

I've not used the Spry updater extension, but it is my understanding that it will merely update the existing functionality to use the 1.4 widgets and will not add any new widgets to Dreamweaver. To use any widget that has been added to Spry, you'll need to add and modify the code yourself. If you plan on using any of those widgets more than once, it might be good to create some snippets to make the insertion of the various code chunks easier. You'll also need to copy over any of the new files into your SpryAssets folder from the Spry download package to obtain the require functionality.
