Hi Mark,

The thing is I want to get a Starting point to start searching on a Clients Computer on the Network. A good place to make this possible is to write things to the registry. The PC's my software would be installed to would be termed as Sales Terminals. They should be debarred from running or doing anything else but running the Sales Terminal Software. In otherwords, it is a requirement that my software takes over the hardware, and allows no one else near it.

Unbridled Access to HKLM is just one minor step in this game.

The Target Machine is not a machine in an office suite where various sales reps can do their own thing in their own time, this is a machine sitting on a Sales counter, guarding a Cash Drawer. I need exclude the Possibility that at some stage someone may logon differently and use the machine to say write a letter to his aunty. It is a Sales Terminal, Any Other attempted activity Must be Totally and absolutely Barred.

In Other words, I want to configure this machine as one that can do only One Singular Task, i.e. Being a Cash Register. I also need ways on this machine to search, and to have Search Hints in the registry at a Predictable Place,independent of whom managed to log on, i.e. HKLM

Is it possible under Vista to do this, or should I go for an alternative OS.

Smile | :) Smile | :)
