Can someone tell me how to get both the major and minor of a file version as a string while dropping the revision and build?

I will use msiexec.exe as an example…

q:if (exists file “msiexec.exe” of system folder) then first 3 of (version of file “msiexec.exe” of system folder as string) else “n/a”

A: 3.1

I would like to be able to get everything to the left of the second “.”

Thanks

You can do some basic string manipulation of versions using the “preceding text” inspector:

q: preceding text of last “.” of preceding text of last “.” of (version of file “msiexec.exe” of system folder as string)
A: 4.0
