The problem is that the BDE requires Full access rights (as the executing user) to its registry key. I would not mind if it only required read-only rigths -or- it didn't do it as the executing user (i.e. a user without rights to that registry key)
XP has a 'runas' option, is this is available on w2k?
Actually doesn't the BDE run as a service anyway?
But anyway, surely they can't expect the BDE to run without ever being able to save its configuration changes? Is any application allowed to change its registry settings?
Cheers, Kurt.
