How can I tell if the Office Assistant is enabled?

[Diarmuid]

Hi
In my Office 2000 database, I use the Office Assistant to show users a
list of results. I use the Set bal = Assistant.NewBalloon mehtod.
If however, the Assistant is turned off, nothing happens. There is no error
message. How can I tell if Set bal = Assistant.NewBalloon worked correctly.
Is there a setting I can check?
Thanks
Diarmuid

Hi Diarmuid

You can check the Assistant.On property, which returns true/false if the
Assistant is enabled/disabled.

Alternatively, you could just use MsgBox.
