Having the most up to date version of Microsoft Office (now known as Microsoft 365) is good, as you can use all of the new functionality which Microsoft have added. However even older versions have all of the features that most people need.
If you are unsure what version of Microsoft Office you have then open either a Word document or Excel Workbook, choose File from the top left corner, and then click either Account or Help on the left navigation bar. You’ll see your Office version and information under Product information, on the right side of the window.
If you don’t see Account or Help after clicking File, you may be using an older version of Office. Open one of your existing Office document or create a new document open in any of the Office applications such as Word or Excel. You should be able to match your version with the screenshots below.
