Welcome to the Forums.

Well there is very little nw documentation or support for VB 6 on Vista. What I do know about the security process is that a new security token should be creaetd for minor admin tasks. If multiple tasks are to be done uder the admin account or if one elevation may involve another admin task you need to restart the app using an admin account. I read it on the MS site white paper fo r Vista Security somewhere.

I am not good at security tokens but that is what I remember reading on how it should be done. Should be worth looking into.
