Question

How do I tell the version and patch level from a qbw file?

Hi All,

 

I have a customer with a crashed computer.  I do have her backup of her .QBW (not .qbb) company file from yesterday.  We have other computers that we can transfer her to.  How do I tell the version and patch level of Quickbooks from her .QBW file?

 

Many thanks,

-T

    Open the file on your QBD program. If you didn't encounter any upgrade notification, you are opening it on the same year version. Once the file is open, hit f2 key or ctrl+1. You can find the update/upgrade history of the file.

    Did you miss the part about the computer not working?

      I said try opening the file on your own QBD program.
