 Createprocesswithlogon and LogonUser APIs I am trying to use Createprocesswithlogon and LogonUser, but they seem to
require that the user account has a password setup. If it does not, the API
functions do not work.
Does anyone know if there is a specific way to format the string if it is a
blank password, which is then passed as a long pointer to the string using
StrPtr(Password) in the API call. I have tried settign the Password
variable to vbNullCHar, vbNullString, adding a space, everythign I could
think of, but no go. As soon as I setup a password on the account, it works
fine. Ideas anyone?

Createprocesswithlogon and LogonUser APIs I am getting concerned with the lack of response to this question. Someone
here must know something about this issue, or are the people here not as
smart (as a curve) as I thought? :) Am I as smart as the smartest person
here...? I doubt it, so prove it someone!

We're definitely too smart to be taken in by such a crude attempt at
phsychological manipulation ;-)

I haven't used these functions, and there is nothing in the MSDN docs that I
can find... Since your passing StrPtr to a long, have you tried just
passing 0&?
CreateProcessWithLogon(strptr(user), strptr(domain), 0&, ......

CreateProcessWithLogon requires Windows 2000 or later and Win9x/ME are Not supported
and since I only use Winders 98 I have no reason to continue my education with such folly.
If me realizing this lack of functionallity in Winders 98 makes me smart then so be it...
If not then I guess I'm just a dunce...
Have a good day...

Had he mantioned the word "challenge"... ;-)
As for the question, i've never used it either but i did have a try
when i saw the question.
ME was totally unimpressed<g>, but NT (well, err.lastdllerror) told me
that my process didn't have the privilige. Who do i have to be logged
on as, ferking Bill Gates !?
Anyhoo, as Tom mentioned i'd try to rewrite the declaration to send in
a long and then send a 0&, but since my admin status is just not good
enough, i'll pass on trying that. :)
