Display SharePoint Version number in Excel

Question

I have managed to display the SharePoint Version Number in Word 2007, using the label and the Document Management Policies in SharePoint. Now I am looking for something similar in MS Excel 2007, allowing me to automatically display the current version number
of the Excel file somewhere inside the document.
The idea is to always have an up to date version number on any printout of an Excel file, so that we can control our documents better. While I managed to display the number through the "Quick Parts" tool in Word, I cannot see anything similar in Excel.
Any ideas on how I can achieve this?
Thanks for the help.

Firstly on the SharePoint document library create a custom column called SPVersion. A custom workflow will then be required to copy the SharePoint version number into the SPVersion column when an item is updated or added.
Start Excel and from the quick access toolbar, select More Commands. Then from the left navigation, choose Popular and ensure that 'Show developer bar in the ribbon' is selected. Click OK. Now open the Excel and save the file as a Macro Enabled Excel
Workbook. From the developer ribbon, click on 'View Code'. Right click on Microsoft Excel Objects and click on Insert > Module. Paste the user defined function below into the module: 
Function SPVersion()
Dim wb As Workbook
Set wb = ThisWorkbook
For Each prop In wb.ContentTypeProperties
If prop.Name = "SPVersion" Then
SPVersion = prop.Value
End If
Next prop
End Function
Now return to the Excel sheet and enter the function =SPVersion in any of the Excel cells to display the SharePoint version number.
