ok, how does one get the operating system string to check for versions such as xp,win7 ect,... ? I'm pretty sure there is a dll that you can load to do this.
Thanks in advance for your replies

Hello,

You can try Matrix1Utils 14's WINDOWS VERSION command

Syntax

Version = WINDOWS VERSION ( )

Description

This command will return a number containing the operating system version. It will be set to one of the following values:

400x - Windows 95
410x - Windows 98
490x - Windows ME
500x - Windows 2000
501x - Windows XP
502x - Windows 2003
600x - Windows Vista or Windows 2008
601x - Windows 7

The final digit of the value returned will reflect the current service pack installed on the machine.

You can download it here: http://forum.thegamecreators.com/?m=forum_view&t=85209&b=18

Best regards

JF
