Admin rights required to run vi's?

I am using Labview 6.x on a shared pc running Windows2000 SP1.

In order to run vi's anyone on the box must be an Admin. If they are
not setup as Admin, the vi will not run. We don't want all users to
have full admin rights to the drive. Any ideas?

The Help file for Win 2000 indicates that you can have file/directory level access rights if your harddrive is NTFS (I assume you can't do this with FAT/FAT32). Be sure to set up "standard user"s under Start >> Settings >> Control Panel >> User and Passwords. Once
this is done you should be able to set individual user permission rights for files/folders.
