OLAP / Analysis services version checking by client

The problem is that i would like to integrate a code to the file in net where MS Office Web Components and OLAP services are beeing used.
Code should automatically detect a version of olap client and office web service components (OWC) and if newer version is needed, then it should download it.
Good instructions were @. http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;312876
where ptssetup.exe included all necessary information, but it was applied to Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Analysis Services. Now what i need to know is how to write a code which is working on Microsoft SQL Server 2005. Or how the old code can be changed to get it work on sql server 2005?

Hello,

I'm going to move your question to one of the SQL Server forums were they should be able to help you.

I would like to know that too. Anyway, how is it possible to verify the version of OLAP ? How can it be done? Maybe to somehow connect to server where the olap is being used?
