    replied to Accessing MSAccess dll's from a Windows Scheduled Task
    in .NET
    No offense taken, however I am a developer and know how to write .net exe modules and have been doing so for several years. What I'm not familiar with are account permissions because I'm not a network administrator. And don't take this the wrong way because I appreciate your help, but other than the impersonation class that didn't fix the issue, you didn't suggest anything that I haven't already tried. So I think I need to present my issue to...

      Well the impersonation code didn't seem to work. After referencing the ImpersUser dll in my project, I tried running the 1 line of code to impersonate as the NT AUTHORITY\SYSTE M user. No errors were thrown so i'm assuming that the impersonation as NT AUTHORITY\SYSTE M went through ok, but I still could not open up the access database. I'm really stumped here.

        Thanks, kenobewan. I'll give this a whirl later tonight when I get some time and reply back with my results. It does appear from first glance that this might be the issue.

        Thanks again....

          I apologize, my previous reply was a bit confusing after I reread it. First to answer your question, I am planning to automate this task with the scheduled task only on the server that the exe is currently sitting. It will not be deployed anywhere else.

          But I think I might have miscommunicated what's actually going on here. Let me take a step back and reconfirm what's going on:

          If I double click the .exe everything...

            Yes, it does come down to permissions which is what I'm trying to figure out. Let's start simpler:

            I'm an admin on the server. If the .exe works fine and can open instances of MSAccess when I double click it, why does it fail to instantiate MSAccess when a scheduled task runs the executable as the NT AUTHORITY\syste m user? What am I missing here?

            Thanks,

            John...

              I have a VB.Net console application written in VS 2003 that produces a .exe file that now sits on a Windows 2000 server directory. This exe does the following 3 things:
