Running a program as a different user

In Windows 2000, you can run an application as a different user

without having to log out and log back on to the computer. To do

so, begin by opening the Start menu and navigating through the

menu until you see the program you want to run. Don't click on it

at this point. Instead, hold down the [Shift] key and right-click

on the program's shortcut.



From the pop-up menu, choose Run As.

Enter the username and password you want to use to run the

application and then click OK. You'll now be running this

application as if you were logged on as the user you specified.

All other applications currently running on the computer continue

to run in the context of the currently logged on user.
