Default Test if Word is running

I have a macro that cycles through a group of word docs and imports data into
an excel spreadsheet. Unfortunetly, if a copy of Word is running before the
macro runs I get all kinds of errors.

Is there any way to test from Excel if any copies of Word are running, and
if so stop the macro?

Using Excel 2003, thanks in advance!
