How to check programmatically if Excel is installed?
Claire -
Is it always excel.exe? < I just checked my own computer(s), and the name of the Excel executable is excel.exe on all six of these: Excel 97 SR-2 2000 SP3 2002 SP3 2003 SP3 2007 SP2 2010 Beta - Mike http://www.MikeMiddleton.com "Claire" <replyto@fra wrote in message ... I am not asking about code. I am asking just in general. Is anybody in this group able to answer at least this question posted initially " Is it always excel.exe? I think some older version had msexcel.exe, but I can be mistaken. " Claire "Dave Peterson" wrote in message ... I don't speak the VB. But did you try the createobject() suggestion? Claire wrote: Sorry, I missed that. I am programming in old vbasic (ver.6). My app needs to check if the Excel (any version) is installed on target computer. Claire "Claire" <replyto@fra wrote in message ... Hello, What will be the best way to check if Excel is installed and what is the name of executable? Is it always excel.exe? I think some older version had msexcel.exe, but I can be mistaken. Your thoughts please, Claire -- Dave Peterson |
