George,

Do you have the api call fro this and maybe an example?

>>>I was wondering if it is best to check the windows registry to find if an application is installed on a work station? And if so, what command or control would I use to find a file name 'AcroRd32.exe' in the registry using code only. I've looked at serveral controls in the files section, but could not find one to do what I want it to do. I would appreciate any help.
