    Is there a method to determine the creation date of the current application ( module ) that works across all the MS WIN32 OS's ( 95-98-NT 2000-ME XP) ?

        There is a TimeDataStamp field in the IMAGE_FILE_HEADER if you want to traverse the PE file format of your executable. That field indicates when the linker created the actual executable. There are a few good articles in MSDN by Matt Pietrek regarding a program called PEDUMP. You can use the code from PEDUMP in order to get to that field pretty easily.
