I'm building an application that uses an Office DLL but the user must have version 2003 or higher installed. How can I determine if the user has met the requirement and has the DLL? Basically, how do I detect a DLL?

One way (in C++) would be to attempt to use the DLL within a try-catch block. If it works, great, the DLL exists. If not, then you catch the exception and display an error message before exiting the program.
