    Question

    Actually i have to create an Installer CDRom and would like to install IE5 if the user does not have it installed in his machine.

    How do i detect if IE 5 is installed in the clients machine by using a VB application ?

    Any tips would be appreciated...


    Regards

    the version of an existing internet explorer is in the registry.

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer
    "Version"="??????????"

    just check to see if this key starts with 5

    hope it helps...
