Back in the Windows 2000 days I used to use a program
called Gettype.exe to determine what version of windows I
was running.

I've searched and can't appear to find a verion of
gettype that can detect Windows XP properly. Anyone know
where I can get one?
 
Go to Start > Run and type: WINVER , and hit enter.

Well that will tell me. But won't tell a script. Sorry if
that wasn't clear in my original message.

What I need to be able todo is run a batch file and fork
depending on what version of Windows I am runing.
i.e. Win95/98, WinNT, Win2k, WinXP
