Unfortunately because of an oversight it is not possible to do so as the moment. I will correct this as soon as I can. It is possible to link the compressed dlls (ResDlls.res) to your application and have the dlls always available (well almost always). I will add an overloaded version of Load_???_Dll(silent: boolean): integer; to allow you just to test availability of dlls without any messages. - Russell Peters -----Original Message----- From: delphizip-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:delphizip-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of zifnabbe@sourceforge Sent: Friday, 19 November 2004 9:09 PM To: delphizip@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [delphizip] checking dll's silently Hi, Is there already a way to check if the dll is available on the system (and has the right version), without giving an exception when there is a problem? I want to disable the zip options if there is a problem with the Zip dll.
