| This tip shows
how you could see which MS Office App.
are installed on your system.
Create a new .exe project and add a
module to it with the following code:
Option Explicit
Private Declare Function RegOpenKey Lib _
"advapi32" Alias "RegOpenKeyA"
(ByVal hKey _
As Long, ByVal lpSubKey As String, _
phkResult As Long) As Long
Private Declare Function RegQueryValueEx _
Lib "advapi32" Alias
"RegQueryValueExA" _
(ByVal hKey As Long, ByVal lpValueName As _
String, lpReserved As Long, lptype As _
Long, lpData As Any, lpcbData As Long) _
As Long
Private Declare Function RegCloseKey& Lib _
"advapi32" (ByVal hKey&)
Private Const REG_SZ = 1
Private Const REG_EXPAND_SZ = 2
Private Const ERROR_SUCCESS = 0
Public Const HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT = &H80000000
Public Function GetRegString(hKey As Long, _
strSubKey As String, strValueName As _
String) As String
Dim strSetting As String
Dim lngDataLen As Long
Dim lngRes As Long
If RegOpenKey(hKey, strSubKey, _
lngRes) = ERROR_SUCCESS Then
strSetting = Space(255)
lngDataLen = Len(strSetting)
If RegQueryValueEx(lngRes, _
strValueName, ByVal 0, _
REG_EXPAND_SZ, ByVal strSetting, _
lngDataLen) = ERROR_SUCCESS Then
If lngDataLen > 1
Then
GetRegString =
Left(strSetting, lngDataLen - 1)
End If
End If
If RegCloseKey(lngRes) <> ERROR_SUCCESS Then
MsgBox "RegCloseKey Failed: "
& _
strSubKey, vbCritical
End If
End If
End Function
On
form1 put a CommandButton and four labels
with the following code:
Option Explicit
Function FileExists(sFileName$) As Boolean
On Error Resume Next
FileExists = IIf(Dir(Trim(sFileName)) <>
"", _
True, False)
End Function
Public Function IsAppPresent(strSubKey$, _
strValueName$) As Boolean
IsAppPresent =
CBool(Len(GetRegString(HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT, _
strSubKey, strValueName)))
End Function
Private Sub Command1_Click()
Label1.Caption = "Access " & _
IsAppPresent("Access.Database\CurVer",
"")
Label2.Caption = "Excel " & _
IsAppPresent("Excel.Sheet\CurVer",
"")
Label3.Caption = "PowerPoint " & _
IsAppPresent("PowerPoint.Slide\CurVer",
"")
Label4.Caption = "Word " & _
IsAppPresent("Word.Document\CurVer",
"")
End Sub
Execute
the app. (F5) and click the button.
