Jan - which version of dBase are you running? The current version (2.80) has UAC aware settings and can create Aliases on the fly inside your EXE program without calling the BDE. UAC settings can also be used to cause dBase 2.80 to place all "modifiable" system files in "safe" places where they can be modified by "asInvoker" users.

You can also avoid a LOT of UAC headaches by creating a DEO dBase app which builds just one small EXE "startup" file which resides inside ProgramFiles and all the other parts of your application reside on a server and are not configured as EXE files, thus preserving UAC settings while getting around the UAC frustrations.
