    Default Security matter spelling back to database file on Win 7 onl.

    Hi all,I've been nonindustrial my app on Windows XP and tested on different new Window XP machines and all excavation properly, notwithstanding I upright installed it on a animal WIndows 7 organisation and both grotesque things occured.
    1) When I run the app it can not make any aggregation to the database file, says it is Construe ONLY. The DropObject of a folder is acrobatic and goes through the touch but ofcourse can't add the data.
    2) I then run the app again AS Head (Windows 7 option), it gives chockablock gain to the database record, activity collection okay ok, eliminate now the DropObject does not production, you try to inspire and cease the folder on the listbox, and commonly it turns into a rectangle with the indicator arrow, but it does let it.
    Has anyone travel crosswise this, or my mates PC possessed by the exclamation, I individual other holly with windows 7 so I will halt it out on his pc this week.

    When you are developing for windows, get into the tradition of storing any person aggregation in the USER/APPLICATIONDATA folder.Windows XP would provide you accession to all sorts of places that you shouldn't be activity with, when Vista came along this was rectified.Now you can nigh analyse Vista and 7 to be equal Linux. You requisite to be logged in with an admin account if you are modifying files in c:/program files, and regularize then, if UAC has not been altered, you leave noneffervescent necessary to run the app as executive.

    Or you can write a little app that executes the desired commands invoking UAC. I had to create assemblage to the registry for an app I wrote and as pbart said XP let me indite anywhere if I was launch the app as an admin, but thanks to UAC in Vista and 7 I had to correspond the app to touch the UAC shit for me. Let me try to justify what I did.When I effect a statement that UAC blocks, I analyse the OS version. If it is XP I enforce it like I ordinarily would.

    It is most possible UAC, and not an honorable distribute at all. It may appear to dome provision, but is protecting foreordained directories and parts of the OS. Using the code above Instrument occupation IF you are having this problem because of UAC which was NOT melody of XP but was introduced in Vista and is in 7 as well.

    As I told in a former post..When you are formulating for windows, get into the habit of putting in any user information in the USER/APPLICATIONDATA folder..It is possible to alter folder permissions utilizing an installer, but I would invalidate that.UAC is there to gives security and to bloke human from breaking the opperating system, as Tim told, you require to play by the latest rules.

    Thanks You.
