Permissions Through VB6 Program

[Kim]

Is there anyway to allow a vb 6 program to read, write, and delete folders
and files on a Windows File Server 2003 without giving the user running the
program permissions to that folder/file? I do not want to share these
folders and give permissions to the user because I don't want them to have
the ability to change, delete or write files accept through my program.

Programs run in a security context (i.e. account) and accesses are
checked relative to that context. Both com and .net provide for
a way that a component can be instanced that will run with a
different context provided that the context of the application
has the needed permissions to launch/use the component.
