PDB parsing [Q]

[Dmitry Beransky]

Hello all,

I'm not sure if this is the right newsgroup to post such a message, but
it is the closest I could find.  

I need to write a program that among other things parses PDB files.  I'm
a programmer and I've never before dealt with PDB files.  I know that
there are currently two formats in which , PDB files can be found: v.1
and v.2.  My question is this:  is it possible to tell the difference
between the two formats programmatically?

If there is another place more suited to the nature of my question, do
let me know.

Thanks in advance
