I had a similar situation recently where I needed to get some DPI

that used the Windows APIs and returned the proper information. I
included
that exe with my app and called it from within LC. In your case you
would
create a 64-bit command line app and I'm guessing you could find sample
code for such a common API call.
Another thought occurs (along these lines)... I'm pretty sure if you run
shell commands on windows then the program files are present as env vars
(at least for the shell's bitness). So it might be possible to run the
32-bit cmd.exe from shell() and give it a bat script which echos out the
relevant var?
Warmest Regards,
Mark.
