Compare webdriver version with browser

[Marcel Schleicher]

Hi there,

I use VBA with Selenium basic to steer chrome browser.

Since it is deployed we have the situation that chrome gets an automated update and versions of webdriver and chrome doesn't match.
Unfortunately I found no way to retrieve webdriver and chrome version numbers. Is there a way to retrieve both version numbers using VBA?

Warm regards

I did a comparison with a filesystem object (edge and webdriver)

I found a cool way to ensure that ChromeDriver version always matches Chrome Browser version.

I run this code in Microsoft Access VBA when my switchboard form loads.
