Different installation branches for windows 98/XP?
I searched the docs, but haven't found a way to detect the exact OS version which is running. I need to write different strings to the registry, depending on the version of windows.

I'm lucky for any pointers.

Thanks for your help
Peter


Check the Appendix B of the documents for the GetWindowsVersion Function. Also if you only need to detect if its WinNT or Win9x check out my font installation pages as I use a simplified version of that function to detect NT/9x.
