Hi,

I am currently working on windows xp and found out that one of my third
party software which is written to run mail merge function on office 97 have
a problem.

The software have no problem running on windows xp till the user try to do a
mail merge function of office 97.

Hence to overcome this problem i have to give the user admin right in order
for the mail merge function to work. After i remove the admin right the user
can do mail merging from there on.

But the issue is that there is a lot of user using this computer to execute
this job. And there is a lot of computer out there with a lot of user. Hence
I have to set admin right whenever a new user login and try to do the job.
This would kill me young.

Is there a workaround to resolve this issue. Thank you! I really want to die
young.
