BTW, "Run as administrator", on my system is 3rd item from the top of the

....If I simply start the Explorer I can't drag and drop files, but if I
right click and say "Start as administrator" it works fine....

That seems to be a useful way of testing drag and drop during development.

But how do you do it? [I get no "Start as administrator" when I right
click on "Computer".]

So I had this wonderful idea of creating a shortcut to a folder, and going
into Properties/Shortcut/Advanced. There's a check box there labelled
"run as administrator" but it is disabled :-(

I obviously have something to learn about Vista. :-(
