romVersion is a UInt32, you'll need to convert it to a string Char*, 
and pass that to WinDrawChars. You can use StrIToH.

hi riyon,
    i also used the 
windraw method to print romVersion value but it shows some correpted value, how 
to display it?

i used like this
WinDrawChars((Char *) 
&romVersion,4, 20, 30);

    hi Le,

thanks for ur reply, i used the 
    method to find os version,
UInt32 romVersion;
miscErr = 
    FtrGet(sysFtrCreator, sysFtrNumROMVersion, &romVersion );
if i print 
    the romVersion it doesn't show the result, similarly memory details,
but 
    deviceid, companyid shows exact result, 
  
  It's a hex value, though I forget the exact format.
  You can, however, compare the OS version with a required one, using the 
  macro sysMakeRomVersion
  
  if (romVersion >= 
  sysMakeROMVersion(5,0,0,sysROMStageRelease,0))
//OS 5 or 
  above
 

  
    
    Le i am having  one more doubt, can i 
    show the company name(like palm inc), device name(like treo 680) instead of 
    deviceid(D053), companyid(hspr).
  
  If you keep a table in your code to cross-reference it 
to. 

  
    
    Thanks with,
karthik
