Our Business Manager has an upgraded version of DAC Easy. One change

change her login settings so that she has enough rights to run this
payroll program?

For now I have her log off as a user and then we log her in as an
administrator while she runs payroll. I am not concerned with this
person having administrator rights since she is already my backup for
checking the server for overnight backups and various logs when I am
out of the office.

Thank you.

Download ProcessExplorer from MS (it's a Sysinternals tool) and extract it
to a folder on the workstation's HD
Take away her admin rights.
Log in as her
Use RunAs to launch ProcessExplorer
Try to run the app

See where it fails ....you'll need to play with the filter settings to see
where in the registry/file system it's trying to read/write & failing.
As an administrator, change the registry and file system permissions
appropriately so Users have access

Oh, and complain loudly to the software developers. This is just plain
sloppy code.
