I need to know if the underliing OS of a file supports FileSystemWatcher

Try something like this (I'm using C#, but VB.NET works
the same): from CH 23 of MS Press Microsoft .NET Compact
Framework (Wigley, Wheelwright).

OperatingSystem osInfo = Environment.OSVersion

switch(osInfo.Platform)
{
case PlatformID.Win32NT:
case PlatformID.Win32Windows:
}
-----Original Message-----
Hello,

I have a UNC-Filename (e. g. \\HostComputer\C\Data\Test.abc). How canI retrieve informations if the hosts operating system (XP, NT, W98)supports FileSystemWatcher?

Thanks for any help.

Tobias
