 API to retrieve O/S version

Is there a class in VB7 to retrieve the different versions of the O/S (98,
NT, XP, W2k, servers etc) in VB7.

Thanks,

Frank

Don't think API.  Think .NET Framework.

Check the System.Environment.OSVersion property.

Is there a table showing the mapping of the builds and versions to the O/S
like Win98 ? Thanks !
