Bill, David Yes, I want to run it from within VS.
I haven't been able to construct parameters* (within the External Tools dialogue) to suit Runas, and a suitably-constructed shortcut isn't allowed from within that tool. Just using the path to FUSLOGVW.exe doesn't allow it to be elevated. *(parameters seem not applicable to what I want, anyway) _____ Ian Thomas Victoria Park, Western Australia _____ From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of David Kean Sent: Saturday, December 17, 2011 2:01 PM To: ozDotNet Subject: RE: VS configuration - external tools I'm, guessing Ian wants this so that he can launch it from VS. I haven't tried this, but right-click on the exe, click Properties, choose Compatibility and then check Run as Admin. I'm guessing this should work.

But changing the Settings in this requires that it is run as Administrator. I can't see how that can be done in the External Tools of Visual Studio. Also, this 'wizard' in VS will not accept a shortcut (which could be flagged to run as Admin). Any suggestions? ________________________________ Ian Thomas Victoria Park, Western Australia
