Dear Reader,

    I have been asked several times now to release a simple
    and easy-to-use way to obtain the Windows full user info
    that has to be typed in at the Windows setup.
    The information sits 'somewhere' in the system waiting
    for some programmers to be extracted and displayed in
    their AboutBoxes.

    Displaying UserName, CompanyName, SerialNumber and the
    TRUE Windows version makes every program look professional.
    So programming something useful is still your problem
    further on. I can merely help you to give it the 'it'
    you've been looking for.

    Here it is: the commented source code for VB4 (16/32)
                to extract and display the desired data
                under several Windows versions.

          prior release for VB3 only.
