Please don't send me to the Codeproject article, i'm looking for some native
way to be able to elevate a user using VB. As it stands right now, Microsoft
is providing that "privilege" to Visual C++ developers.

It's called the Vista UAC Manifest that will be used by an application to
present the proper credentials to Vista so that the application runs with
escalated privileges.
 
True, but the manifest is there to tell the complete application to run in
Administrative mode, which by the way doesn't work at all. I'm looking to
elevate a small portion of the application when the user clicks a button.
