RE: Incorrect Windows Version displayed with (!VER) command

Patchou is right... It's probably the compatibility settings (didn't think of that before).

Here's what my program says when running in Win2K compatibility mode:
GetWindowsVersionString="Windows 2000"
GetWindowsServicePackVersionString=""

Win32MajorVersion=5
Win32MinorVersion=0
Win32BuildNumber=2195
Win32CSDVersion=

(Same as the (!VER) up there).

Lopardo... bug

GetWindowsServicePackVersionString=""

Win32MajorVersion=6

GetWindowsVersionString is blank... is there a different function for vista?

Actually, GetWindowsVersionString and GetWindowsServicePackVersionString are not Win32 API functions, they are from a custom library. They just don't know about LH

Windows Version: Windows 2000, 5.00.2195
Messenger Client Version: 7.0.0816
Messenger Plus! Version: 3.54.0132

worked correctly for me
