Tipp-Update vom 16.02.09
Nachfolgend Änderungen an den Funktionen IsWin2000 und IsWinXP, sowie eine neue Funktion IsVista, damit der Code auch korrekt unter Windows Vista funktioniert.

  End With
End Function

' Windows XP?

  Dim OSVersion As OSVERSIONINFO
 
  With OSVersion
    .dwOSVersionInfoSize = Len(OSVersion)
    GetVersionEx OSVersion
 
    IsWinXP = (.dwPlatformID = VER_PLATFORM_WIN32_NT) And _
      (.dwMajorVersion = 5 And .dwMinorVersion >= 1)
  End With
End Function

' Windows Vista?

  With OSVersion
