I mean the Valentina database file format.  As you know, it changed 
from v1 to v2.  So I should write code like

If Valentina.GetDatabaseVersion((theFile) < &h200 then
...
Else
Msgbox "This is a v1 file."
End if

Now suppose that you change the Valentina file format again.  What I 
want is a function that returns &h200 now, and the correct value in the 
future.
