service pack info for wine's --winver nt40?

[Art Hughes]

Hey I finaly found the problem :)
The install sheild and it seems many other windoz programs look for the
OS version in the registry.
On my system it looks in ~/.wine/system.reg for :

	[Software\\Microsoft\\Windows NT\\CurrentVersion] 997331021
	"CSDVersion"="Service Pack 6"

which I set up with 'wine --managed regedit.exe', I used the service
pack
my dlls came from.
Thanks for all the help,
Art
