Hi,
I have Visual Basic (with SP5) in some Windows 2000 (with SP2) clients and the users that use this are normal Domain Users!
I have two problems when these users are loged on:
1-If they open the vbp file, VB closes immediately. They have to open form by form.
2-When they want to use, for example, a different component like ADO Data Control VB closes immediately as well. But if an administrator opens a project and uses this component, then all users can use it...no more unexpected shut down.!!??

I would appreciated help in this area...the only solution I got was put everybody as a power user!

thanks in advance,

Miguel

You must give the users rights to the windows folders, and the system32 folder. This is because VB needs to have access to the registry.
