Hi Dave:

I confess that I still use VC6 for my existing MFC projects, and I just
use an external manifest. Is there anything wrong with doing this?

I don't know if a non-embedded manifest will work with this Vista
information (I haven't tried it).

Hi Dave:

Just got around to including this "requestedPrivileges" info in my
external manifest. It works as expected.

If the user tries to save a file to Program Files, then an error is
reported rather than a virtualized save. This is what I always wanted.
