VB6 and version of Windows

My program, written in VB6, seems to be working fine in both XP and 98SE.
Vista is being tested tomorrow!

For various reasons, I am using Notepad. Some of the Output is in Portrait
Mode and some in Landscape. The code for these is slightly different in 98
and XP. I shall see tomorrow what it would be in Vista.

A neat solution would be to determine what version of Windows is being used
and write the code accordingly:
If version = XP Then [XP Code]
If version = 98 Then [98 Code]

Is this possible? If so, how?

Not returned version is traditional version numbers.

ie XP is version 5.1
Windows 2000 version 5.0

(Interesting that the guys at microsoft only considered XP a .1
increment over 2000....... Can anyone tell me. Is Vista version 6 or
yet another .1 increment)
