I am familiar with this list and have read all the relevant documents listed. Unfortunately, they rely on custom code-behind for their behavior.

IN my experiments, I could get the appearance (CheckBox and Label), but not the override from higher levels.

I am not looking for code to fill my exact need. I am looking for a working starting point, perhaps an article or tutorial, that I can understand and learn from, and use this knowledge to create a solution for my need. I am hoping that someone has solved this before. I dislike re-inventing the wheel.

Nothing stands out here....

Win7/32 and VS 2005 and 2010. It does not matter which VS I use, the executable trips the elevated privileges in run or debug modes. In debug mode, executing using step into (F11) or step over (F10) fails on the first press. The problem has to be triggered before my application "new" initialization code is reached.

PS: If I log in as an administrator, instead of an ordinary user, the program runs just fine.

The loader obviously knows because, it asks for the administrative credentials. Another program could be written that looks at the .exe and the related .dlls, makes the same determination and prints out descriptive messages. I am surprised that one has not been written.
