Admin RIGHTS required ?
Hi,
I have created setup files using "software deployment wizard" in VB6.
When I try to run the setup in Windows 2000 PC , it gives an error message "Admin Rights required". In other PC , e.g. Win 98 , it is working perfectly.
Can anyone suggest what is the way around ?
I have used Rich text box control in the application.
Thanks.

In later versions of Windows you need to have admin rights before you can install anything ...therefore you need to login as a user who has admin rights, then install.

Depending on what your using for a setup program, and what your program installs, then Admin Rights are required... or not.
Typically though, a VB6 setup package needs admin rights since you have to update system DLL's.

You're probably encountering problems when the setup attempts to replace system files. I would check out the below MS KB article. It may help to eliminate your issues.
