In windows 2000 you can install software logged in as a user, are given the option to install as different user. Can I code this into and application. I shell out to the install. It runs unattended, but users can't complete the install. How can I get the install program to use administrative rights.

Just a guess... have you tried having a batch file (that you are shelling out to) first do a NET LOGON <username> <password> as Administrator, then call the install?

Hope that works..
