i read in a c++ book, that to get the version of the operating system to use GetVersionEx.

i tried this
Code:
'module
Public Type OSVERSIONINFO
        dwOSVersionInfoSize As Long
        dwMajorVersion As Long
        dwMinorVersion As Long
        dwBuildNumber As Long
        dwPlatformId As Long
        szCSDVersion As String * 128      '  Maintenance string for PSS usage
End Type
Public Declare Function GetVersion Lib "kernel32" () As Long
'form
Private Sub Command1_Click()
MsgBox GetVersion()
End Sub
what number does this give?

it's heaps of number, that mean nothing??

can any one help?
