    Is there anything different we need to do to make our executables compatible with standard user XP? Will worry about Vista later. What do we need to do to get programs to work with limited use accounts? we have VS 6.0 and builing c++ code as of right now. thank you

      It depends what you're trying to do. In general, you don't need to do anything special for your program to run as a standard user. One very simple way is to develop and test your code as a standard user, by running VS as a standard user. That's what I've done since 2001, developing C++ applications using VS6, VS2003, VS2005 and VS2008 under Windows 2000 (not VS2005 and VS2008) and Windows XP.
