I would search the registry, see if you can narrow down on an entry that
points to outlook, then check another machine to see if the same entry
exists on that machine (if outlook is on that machine too), then use this to
check if outlook is installed on other machines.

Subject: [DUG]: Detecting if Outlook is installed


I've written a document management system to automate creation and
management of Word files. It can display a list of names in the Outlook
contact folder and insert fax numbers or addresses automatically. But if
Outlook is not installed it gives a ClassID error.

Does anybody know how to check if Outlook is installed.
