I recall doing qbooks in a few TS machines and we always had to modify the 2 qbooks registry locations in HKLM which a user doesn't have access to by default. That worked both times without issue.
This is on 2003 TS. I would be more concerned with going with a 2008 TS with all the unknowns with different software vendors unless its explicitly supported/verified to work.

Talking with my IT colleagues in CPA firms who do have TS, they say it's fairly trivial, in fact this discussion came up on the cpa tech list I'm on, recently. To quote the email sent:" You can run all versions of QB Pro on Terminal Services without giving users administrative rights. The key is very simple. Right-click the short-cut to the QB executable and select properties. Select the Compatibility tab and select the checkbox that says "Allow non-administrators to run this program." That is it. " As was already indicated, it's not supported but it works. Good luck!

I can't see how you would install multiple versions on 1 TS tho'.

I am discussing the possibility of installing a new 2008 TS for them. I was wondering if any of you have any experience with TS in an accounting/CPA environment? Any gotchas that weren't evident at first? Should I expect issues with using TS on x64 with LOB apps? My biggest concern right now is Quickbooks. They have about 6 different years/versions of Quickbooks that they must use to work with different client's files. From what I know, I think Intuit only states that TS is supported in the Enterprise versions, not the Pro. But my guess is that many people use it that way anyway. Any insight? Thanks for any input. wjh ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
