I'm probably wrong (been a while) but I think that created files will always inherit permissions from the user that created them.
However if that user has the rights couldn't you just set the permissions as part of the program that creates the file? The command line program cacls (use "cacls /?" to see the options) can be used to update ACLs for your file. It may be cumbersome but it should work...
