Detecting if Acrobat Reader is installed on Client machine

[Khodr]

Hello everyone,
From ASP.NET, how can I detect if client has acrobat reader installed or
not. Client has IE 5 and higher...

Your help will be highly appreciated.

Thanks

You have to detect this from the client script:

However, once you determine the presence/absence of Acrobat, you can pass
that information using client-side script to a server-side control to be
submitted to the server.
