Pete,

I think you have two options that apply here;
1. play around with adding more specific rights to the "power use" account
until the legacy software requirements are satisfied,
2. incorporate Microsoft Virtual PC or Virtual Server environment specifically 
for
this legacy software and give the user  administrative access without further 
analysis.

Its there a way to 'fake' an administrator account? I ask because our 
MRP software requires the user have complete local privliges (power user 
accounts do not work) I've complained but changing MRP software is not 
an option. We have alot of small fires because the users of the MRP 
software have to be administrator on their own box. Thanks in advance
