Windows XP and Windows 2000

[pasu]

I have a VFP5 exe program running on Windows XP with the Security from the Domain Controller control the user as a normal user (non admin on local machine) However, the exe won't run on Windows 2000 with the same Security from the Domain Controller. I guess it will be a local directory access right issue. Anyone has experience with this and how to solve this problem?

What's the error message you're getting when attempting to run the exe on W2K?

I would guess that the software is probably trying to write to somewhere other than 'my documents' or 'program files'.

It's possible that a service pack has been applied to the workstation which 'locks down' access to the hard drive - restricting non admin users from writing, for example, to the root of the C: drive.

Try opening that access up and then tighten it down till the program stops working.

Good luck

Regards

The error message is "Error initializing Application object" or "Can not open table.." I check the source code and the user has the read and write access to the table that the program open. Thanks
