AndyMac's suggestion is right on as it may be a registry or file permission
difference between the two computers, probably for the program files folder,
all users profile, or registry key for local machine for the application.
Less likely would be a user right difference between the two computers which
you could compare the effective settings for each computer in Local Security
Policy security settings/local policies/user rights. For Windows 2000
computers you could also export the security settings of one computer to a
..inf security template and then use that template to run a Security
Configuration and Analysis Tool to compare the results on the other
computer. Note that exporting security settings does NOT include system
services, file system, registry, or restricted groups. The link below
explains how to use SCA tool and Security Templates. --- Steve
