Ok, I know how to search to see if a file is installed. I learned this trick on the page that shows how to detect IE.

http://www.installsi...05/SearchIE.htm


But I am wondering, is there a way to capture the path to the file once found?

I mean, in this case I don't know exactly where the user may have installed a program that I would like to make use of (if installed at all). If it is found, I would need to store the path to the file. Is this even posible?

Ask a silly question....

The property used in the AppSearch table holds the path to where the file was found.

Doh!
