Hi

I've bumped into a problem, getting my paradox db based application to run on restricted users on WinXP

The error on the non administrative accounts is:
Network initialization failed. Permission denied. File: C:\PDOXUSRS.NET Directory: C:\.

It works perfectly with the accounts which are set up as administrators, but seems to have a problem accessing the db with userprofiles with less permissions.

Does anyone know how I get it to run on the restricted accounts?

TIA

Hi,

it seems you have no permission to write at c:\.

Try to change the directory e.g. d:\ or any sub directoy of c:\.

I can write to the disk in explorer and other applications!

Where do I change where it writes the pdoxusrs.net file?

Hi,

You can use a TSession component and modify its properties NetFileDir and PrivateDir... More infos are in the online help of Delphi.

I tried to change NetFileDir and PrivateDir to C:\temp, but then the error just refers the the c:\temp path instead.

The same error, just with the new path.
