batch file and windows version
We have windows 2003 server and all clients are using XP computers with office 2003. Now we have added 2 windows 7 computers with office 2010. For the XP/2003 users we have a script that creates their outlook profile automatically once they log in (richprofile). This script dose not work with windows7/2010. I need to check if the OS windows 7, then not execute the richprofile command and if it is windows XP, then excute it. Can someone help? here is the BAT file @echo off\\myserver\ClientApps\RichProfile.exe exchangeserver %UserName% outlook N Dstart dc.vbsexit So if windows 7 it should be @echo offstart dc.vbsexit and if windows xp, it should be @echo off\\myserver\ClientApps\RichProfile.exe exchangeserver %UserName% outlook N Dstart dc.vbsexit Thanks

Here you go… @echo off ver | find "6.1" > nul if %ERRORLEVEL% == 0 goto Win7 ver | find "5.1" > nul if %ERRORLEVEL% == 0 goto WinXP :Win7 echo Running Windows 7 Script goto exit :WinXP echo Running Windows XP Script goto exit :exit You can even use systeminfo | find "OS Name" command filter to find the correct version of the OS.
