Word & C#

Good morning, it's possible to check from c# if word is installed ?

I need to write a class to manage word and need a method to check before
initialize it if a version of word in installed in the system, returning
an error if no.

Thank you.
Stefano.

Well, I think that Word creates a specific key at registry, e.g. Word 2007
has a key at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE->SOFTWARE->Microsoft->Office->Word. So would
check presence of that key at registry. But it is possible that it can be
different some versions.
