Both suggestions were very helpful and were put to good use. Thanks to both Jesse and Ehren. Jesse said: There is a command line runas.exe, like in XP. But the right click "Run as..." is gone, pretty sure. The guy that wrote Sysinternals has written something called Shellrunas that I've been meaning to check out. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/cc300361.aspx Ehren said: Start the Group Policy Editor (gpedit.msc) and navigate to Computer Configuration, Windows Settings, Security Settings, Local Policies, Security Options. Double-click "User Account Control: Behavior of the elevation prompt for administrators in Admin Approval Mode." Change to "Prompt for credentials," and click OK. You can also perform this configuration as part of a domain-wide Group Policy from a Vista client by setting the same value at the same location in the Group Policy Object (GPO). Hope that helps!

I am wrestling with locating the Run-as command in Windows Vista and not the Run-as administrator command. I would like to run an application as a different user and not as the local administrator. Like a lot of things in Vista, this relatively simple command has apparently been buried somewhere. The question is where? Any help is appreciated.
