Hi Vinoth,

I am a new to windows development environment. I have similar problem to solve (one you have mentioned in this thread). Need your help to get the basic code to solve the problem you have mentioned.

Problem I am trying to solve is to find out if a specific hot-fix is missing on Vista machine.

Thanks,
