How to check if acrobat is installed in .NET

I have a program I am writing that has parts that interact with acrobat.  When a user that does not have acrobat is running the program on their machine it crashes when they try to access a form that imports the acrobat libraries.  Is there a way to check for acrobat and display a message to the user if they do not have acrobat?

Hi,

Pretty sure they have a try...catch almost exactly the same as JavaScript.

It should be possible to detect and recover from failures in .NET, in the way try ... catch is used in JavaScript. Don't know the details.
