[AccessD] Create reference only when needed

John - I've never used it. BUT it may be the solution to this case as only some of my users *have* Frontpage installed at all.

I'm a bit scared of the speed issues, but how do In convert code below to use late binding instaed?

Kath

Private Sub CmdOpenFP_Click()

Dim oFPweb As FrontPage.Web
Dim oFP As FrontPage.Application
Dim FrontPageRunning As Boolean

'Determine whether FrontPage is already open or not
FrontPageRunning = IsFrontPageRunning()

If Not FrontPageRunning Then
    Set oFP = CreateObject("Frontpage.Application")
Else
    Set oFP = GetObject(, "Frontpage.Application")
End If

'add code here later to make a copy of my file

'open file in front page------------------------------------------------
oFP.Webs.Open ("E:/Sds/Clients/CPP/Webletters/template.html") 
 ' Show FrontPage
 oFPweb.Activate
 'Set oFP = Nothing

End Sub

  Have you considered late binding?

  Can someone tell mew how to set a reference to a program (in this case
  Frontpage) only if the user has the software installed.

  I have an app that crashed because of missing references, so I want to
  remove them and set them using code when / if needed.

  TIA
