Hello,

I have C++ code that I used to compile on VC++ 6.0
compiler. Now after some modifications I have successfully
compiled the code in VC++ 7.0 (.NET). The code is fully
unmanaged.

The exe runs successfully on WIN-XP machine, but when I
try to run it on Win-98 I get the foll error :

"The wm4.exe file expects a newer version of windows.
Upgrade your windows version."

Can some one help me out of this problem.

Thanks in advance.
Regards,
vibhesh.

make sure you're not defining one of the Windows 2000 flags, either
_WIN32_WINNT or WINVER as 0x0500 or greater.
