[GIS] Determining Personal Geodatabase version

I am using ArcMap software.

How can I find out Personal Geodatabase Version?

I have a client file but I want to find out which version they have used.

I'm not sure if Personal Geodatabases are any different, but in ArcCatalog you can right-click on the name of a File Geodatabase, then have a look in the Upgrade Status section of the General tab of the Database Properties dialog that appears. I am currently using ArcGIS 10, and the Upgrade Status section of a version 9.3 File Geodatabase says the following:

This 9.3 database can be upgraded to the ArcGIS release you are currently using to support additional capabilities.

(I am sure there is probably a better solution.)
