That's impossible to answer without knowing what your program does. As long as you only use features that are in all those OSes, the app should work (in theory). --Mike-- Looks like I picked the wrong week to stop sniffing glue. 1ClickPicGrabber - Grab & organize pictures from your favorite web pages, with 1 click!

I have recently writen a very simple application in WinXP with VC.NET in MFC with a simple use of an ODBC driver. To make it run on a Windows NT 4.0 workstation, I must install NTSP6 (if not installed, missing DLL error message when launching the application)
