Very odd solution.

Ended up putting a regular user in the power user group.  Registering the
DLL and it worked.

I tried the same thing with admin and it did not seem to work??  Not sure
why or if I just missed something.

Took user out of power user group after.

Bye thanks for all your help

Ended up having to put a user in the poweruser group and register the dll
again then it all worked.

regsvr32 "e:\program files\visio\solutions\visio extras\vaoutils.dll"

Not sure why doing this with and admin id did not fix?

Thanks for your help

I'd look at regmon also...when you manually register a dll using regsvr32 it
updates the registry.  Sounds like the client doesn't have permissions to
that hive or specific key.  Regmon will let you see this.

Sounds like a permissions issue.  Try running filemon and have this user run
it again,  look to see if anything is access denied.

We have had Visio2000 standard installed on our TS boxes for years.

Client just tried to run one of the wizards (Network Diagram Wizard) that I
think came with network diagrams add on.

I won't load.  I get an OLE automation error.  Says make sure VaoUtils.dll
is installed and registered.

It is there.  Can't re register under user rights.  Did  it with admin
rights registers fine.

Wizard runs fine with Admin rights.

Checked MS.  Found two articals that say Visio was written to run under
Admin rights.  Good thinking. (267253 and 277926)

My quesiton is has anyone found a workaround for this?  There are other
wizards that run and others that don't.

I tried to figure out if it was just a Hive security issue that I could open
up but had no luck.

Really could use some help with this one.

Thanks in advance.
