Use TRY..CATCH. It's your best friend for dealing with these kinds of 
situations. I typically will start with something like this when trying any 
Office automation:

TRY
        oWord = CREATEOBJECT("Word.Application")
        do all my whizzy automation stuff
CATCH TO m.loError
        IF VARTYPE(oWord)<>[O]
                notify user that word couldn't be found
        ENDIF 
FINALLY
ENDTRY

Depending on what you want to do, the code in the catch block could go in the 
finally block or even outside the TRY..CATCH completely.
