Question
Hello, Kamal.
I hope you can answer my question about the "versions" of
Photoshop program.

I saw this words when I click the Help-System Info,

Adobe Photoshop Version: 8.0 (8.0x118)

and I want to know what the hell the numbers of
braces mean. 8.0x118??
Have you ever seen the numbers like this? I mean...
Your Photoshop program also showed this numbers before?
Or Was that different from this?

(My english is not good, sorry)  

Answer
Hi Yamahasi,
Its just the version number of the Photoshop software you are using. (It's not very important.)
The numbers show the updated sub versions of the same edition.
Example:
For Photoshop 8.0
8.0x104 was the beta version.
and 8.0x118 was the final version.

Hope you understood.
