That looks to see if Outlook is installed.
"Default mail client" means several things:
default from Access: default from IE: default
from MAPI etc etc.
Here are a couple of places to look:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\MailTo
HKEY_LOCAL_MACINE\Software\Clients\Mail
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\11.0\ Common\Mapidll

Hi All
Is there a way that I could programatically check to see if Microsoft
Outlook is installed on the PC. Someone suggested this code, below, but
it is version specific.
Dim appOutlook as Outlook.Application
On Error Resume
Set appOutlook = CreateObject("Outlook.Application.8")
If Err.Number = 429 Then
MsgBox "You Do Not have Outlook 8 Installed"
Exit..
End if
Any suggestion most appreciated
Bob
