Hi,

I need some really fast help and i couldnt find it on the internet :p

What i need is a piece of code that search through ur drives if WINWORD.EXE is present. If it is, it just continues the application at start up, if it doesn't it gives a messagebox that it dosnt exist.

This should be done in VB 08.

Thanks anyway Smile

Dream-In-Code is your friend. I was able to get more help from that forum than my teacher when I was taking Java.

Yahoo Answers is also a good place. I used it a few times on my Java questions. People will point you into the right direction and many times give you code. Use this if your completely lost.

Good luck

mmm,well I think Word is saved in the registry,so why not search the registry entry for it instead?

Besides,you'd need a recursive function to search all the drives(which could take a freaking long time...).
