When looking for example I found this one from this Forum:

Quote from: lucamar on March 13, 2019, 02:26:17 amIt's not really the
Lazarus version. After all, Lazarus is just an IDE, i.e. an overgrown
text-editor.  What really matters is the version of the LCL and you
can get that with LCL_FULLVERSION. For example:

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]window.onload = function(){var x1 =
document.getElementById("main_content_section"); if (x1) { var x =
document.getElementsByClassName("geshi");for (var i = 0; i   {$IF
(LCL_FULLVERSION < 1080400)}  ShowMessage('I''ll use workarounds for
Lazarus pre-1.8.4');  {$ELSE}  Showmessage('Woah! Congrats! Lazarus is
at least 1.8.4.0!')  {$ENDIF}
Based on this I made similar:
Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]window.onload = function(){var x1 =
document.getElementById("main_content_section"); if (x1) { var x =
document.getElementsByClassName("geshi");for (var i = 0; i var{$IF
(LCL_FULLVERSION >= 4060000)}   handle : TLCLHandle;{$ELSE}    handle
: THandle;   //deprecated on Laz 4.6{$ENDIF}  dmData : TdmData;      
 
When I compile I get errors pointing to this $IF..$ELSE..$ENDIF now
added source:
                
Compile Project, Target: /home/saku/lazarus/CqrlogAlpha/src/cqrlog:
Exit code 1, Errors: 2, Warnings: 1
dData.pas(365,5) Error: Incompatible types: got "AnsiString" expected
"Int64"
dData.pas(365,5) Error: Compile time expression: Wanted Boolean but
got <erroneous type> at IF or ELSEIF
dData.pas(368,21) Warning: Symbol "THandle" is deprecated: "Use
TLCLHandle instead of this redefined THandle"

All Googling gives just similar examples.
What is the problem that I can not see?

LCLVersion;

Yes, I am blind !

Added that, but to another unit where I needed it too.
Forgot to add it also here.

Many thanks !
