if application not supported on windows 7 then.....help

[goodbyeplanet]

I know how to do this:

$osversion=@OSVersion

if $osversion=WIN_7 then
run(buses.exe)
endif

but is there a way of somehow reading an exe file then output to say .."this file is not supported on this system"..I mean by first reading the details of the exe file itself then making a conclusion..

Are you going to have multiple executables to run (such as buses.exe for 32 bit and 64 bit OSes)? If so, why don't you do an IF AND statement?

If $osversion="WIN_7" AND @OSarch = "X64" then
    run(buses_x64.exe)
Else If $osversion="WIN_7" AND @OSarch = "X86"
    run(buses_x86.exe)
EndIf

As for reading whether an executable is compatible with the system, I don't think AutoIt can do that.
