    I am working on several programs that require ordinary users to be able to adjust settings that are shared by all users. In particular, if a user plugs in a new video camera to the frame grabber board, the camera won't suddenly revert to the old one when a new user logs in. What are some approved ways to do it?

      if one creates a subdirectory of All Users/Application Data, it's OK to make that folder world writeable and store shared files there. I found this in the specs for the "Designed For Windows XP" logo, which required a lot of links to reach and quite a bit of reading once I had it. Nathan Holt
