I'm using Oracle 8.1.6 and OO4O. Here is how I dectect if Oracle is installed in the machine where my program is run.

Right after you create the Session if error occurs, you know OrcaleInProcServer cannot be created because Oracle is not installed. You can goto HandleError to handle it or doing something.

Set Session = CreateObject("OracleInProcServer.XOraSession&quot
If Err.Number <> 0 Then
MsgBox &quot;Oracle Object For Ole Is not installed&quot;
End If

Hope this might help.
