Changing access previleges without logging off

[John]

Hello All,
I am working on an XP embedded application, in which we want to change
the access previlege
(Ability ro install programs, run certain applications etc..) without really
logging off from the windows.
I was wondering if there is way to dynamically change the user access
previlege, Appreciate any suggestions,
solutions.

Thanks in advance,

John

Hi,

just add the "Run As" support to your system and use the right-click menu
command "run as" to start a program using a different account (such as
Admin...).

hope it helps,

Thanks for your suggestion, I am actually looking for API's to
programmatically switch previleges from the application.
Can I dynamically add/remove a user account as a member of Administrators
Group.


Thanks,
John
