How to set Compatibility mode of an EXE file???

[Sharpharp]

Hi all,

I'm in a bit of a pickle, got a problem with an EXE which we need to set to "Windows 2000 Compatibility Mode".

I need to update this on several hundred computers, and was planning on using Group Policy to run a VBscript on login to change the properties on a particular .exe file so that its in 2000 compatibility mode.

Can anyone help me knock up a quick vbsript to do this please. I've spent some time looking, but no articles on setting the compatibilty attribute of exe files.

Thanks in advance

You might have to do something similar to what is discussed here:

create a compatibility db and send that out to your client machines and register it

Thanks for your reply, but that looks well complicated.
Would be easily to manually go round than take all that in.

Will look for an easier solution.
