Hi Bob,

Thanks for the quick response!

For clarification, one of our MSI dialogs has a dropdown of websites so the 
user can choose which website to upgrade.  To populate that dropdown, I use 
either 'IIS://localhost/W3SVC' in vbscript or ServerManager object in C# 
immediate Ca's.  As far as I know, both methods require administrator 
privileges.  Unless there is a way to get a list of sites without administrator 
privileges?

Currently our clients that have UAC enabled, have to run command prompt as 
administrator and navigate to the MSI using DOS commands.  We would prefer to 
have them run the MSI as administrator using right-click option, or force 
elevation prior to loading this dropdown, but so far I have been unable to 
accomplish this.

Does anyone know of a solution to this?

Thanks, Craig

MSI doesn't support elevated UI or immediate custom actions.
