Why not just run the ShellExecute and let it fail? Mike
I think the best approach here is that used in browser sniffing when designing web pages: test functionality rather than software presence followed by assumptions that may become false later on.
That's basically what Mike is suggesting I think, try the ShellExecute within a suitable error-trap. (Give a thought to possible stubs in wine that may return without error having done nothing for the user).
