Hi all.

Probably it is written in the documentation, but if you say me it, I will
save some time.

I would know....

if I install the Development Kit on a Windows XP Professional platform,
can I build programs to run on Vista or on Win7 platforms, without any other
step?

Thanks for your reply.

In general you could run a driver which build on DDK of XP on later
Windows platform including Windows 7. But you need to test your stuff
carefully.

Yes. Just like with any compiler, it doesn't matter on what version you do
the building (as long as the version is supported).
