Hi;

I have a 16 bit app that I wrote. It works great on Windows XP. I
install it to the C:\ directory because I know it is safer to deal with
8.3
file names with my development package.

My problem is whatever user is logged on to the computer at the time of
the
install, they are the only one that can use it. When that person logs
off
the machine, and another user logs on, that new user is not able to run
the
app. They recieve a windows error telling them it is forbidden.

How do I install the app so all can use it?

Thanks
Pat

There is no Windows error message that says "forbidden". Please
quote the exact message you see on the screen.
