Reference notification.

[Thales750]

I managed to hook my database up to Call Center, an android phone controller gadget that connects your cell phone to your Windows PC.

It works great, if any one want's the code, let me know.

However, It requires a reference and when I deploy this software to my customers, some of them won't have the Call Center software.

So the question; is there a way to determine, at run time, the availability of the reference when the phone dialer form loads, or will I have to wait for an error and do some kind of trap?

Thanks y'all.

Personally I would try to trap the error at run time.

The call centre software presumably resides on the pc somewhere so have vba search for it, if it can't find it, then disable the means the user uses to get to the application so the reference is not called

Look at the Application.References Collection and test the IsBroken Property.

Application.References("referencename").IsBroken

Thanks CJ,
I kind of figured that was the answer.

I was hoping there might be a built in function to verify References.

And Bang, one appears.

Thanks, Galaxiom.
