Graphics, Figures & Tables

Hello. I have a ToC and then a LoF and LoT in my documents. I am compiling this with and without tables and figures.

Is there a way to detect if the number of tables in the document is zero? If yes, then I want to hide (comment out) the \listoftables command. If the number of tables is non-zero, then the command should be included. Same for \listoffigures.

I searched google and this forum without any useful returns.

Thanks in advance,
Ben
