How do I detect QuickTime on the user's system?

The code below will check to see if QuickTime version 3.0 or higher is installed on the user's PC. If not, the installer is launched and the projector quits. If it finds Quicktime is installed, it moves on to a movie called "Start" It assumes that your QuickTime Installer is in the same directory as your projector. Works on both MAC and WIN95/98/ME/NT/2000.

--Checks to see if QuickTime version 3.0
--or greater is installed on the user's machine.
--If no version or a version lower than 3.0 is found
--the QuickTime installer is launched and the projector quits.
--If the the QuickTime version is 3.0 or Higher
--the movie continues to the marker "Start"
