I have got a question for you that no-one has been able to answer.  I have
trawled the Web, looked in News Groups, been in IRC conferences etc but
no-one can help.

I have written my program in VB5 Professional <as part of my A-Level in
Computer Science>.

The thing that I wish to do, is quite complicated.
I want to add a small function to the Install Shield (express) for my
application.  I
can do this much but the actually program is killing me.  I am trying to use
it to firstly check if the OS is MS Win 95 OSR Release 2.  The reason for
this is that i want to use one of the screen savers from it.  After
determining whether it is OSR 2, I then want to use the InstallShield to
change the current screen saver to the flying objects one with the option
set to the flying texture.  I need to change the texture to that of the BMP
distributed with my program.
There are two ways I can do this.  i can either write a DLL in VB / C++
which when
called by InstallShield will automagically make the changes or I can write a
small exe file in VB that will do all of the changes.  Getting the
InstallShield to call and run the program or DLL is the easy part.  The part
I need your advice with is the creation of the DLL - e.g., what functions do
I use - is it win API or what ?

If anyone can help or can be bothered to, I would appreciate ANY help
offered.

Cheers
