I have a VB6 app which is running quite happily in a number 
of mixed (XP/Vista?W7/2008) environments in a number of 
sites.

One W7 machine recently fried it's HDD and had to be 
completely re-installed from scratch.

It is running my app. from a share on a Vista machine.  
After a few stumbles we finally persuaded it to run Fine, 
except when it wants to generate an output via an excel 
template.

Code snipet:

Set oExcel = New Excel.Application
Set oWB = oExcel.Workbooks.Open(sFile)
Set oWS = oWB.ActiveSheet

'sFile' is a .xlt file in app.path\Templates on the server.

This machine fails every time, and my error log reports:
"the requested operation requires elevation"
