Possibility to block users using old SAP GUI version

Selle1

From the title itself, is there any possibility to block users using old SAP GUI version? There is mandatory advisory to the users to install the SAP GUI 8.0 version (from SAP 7.5 which is out of support) but most of them still using the old one for multiple reminders and deadline. 

If there is an option e.g custom ABAP program, this will force the user to install the latest version.

You can use the approach outlined in SAP Note 748424 - "Evaluation of SAP GUI versions and patches" to determine the version used to connect and can then decide what to do (like aborting the log on and displaying a dialog box to the user). I have seen such approaches a couple of times already. The code needs to be developed by you.
However, my preference would generally be to do this rather via a software inventory and push updates to users who have older versions of SAP GUI installed.
