Hi found this at the internet:


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<assembly xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1" manifestVersion="1.0">
<assemblyIdentity version="1.0.0.0"
   processorArchitecture="X86"
   name="Vista UAC Compat.Application"
   type="win32" />
 <description>WindowsVistaReadiness Application</description>
 <trustInfo xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v3">
   <security>
     <requestedPrivileges>
       <requestedExecutionLevel level="requireAdministrator"  />
     </requestedPrivileges>
   </security>
 </trustInfo>
</assembly>


I hope you can do something with it.

You can copy the code into a txt file (notepad) and then rename that file
ie your application is called myapp.exe
then rename the txt file to myapp.exe.manifest.
Put this file into the same folder as the application is.
WHY?
Under xp and vista fnxbasic will work but do not use the themes of the os to do that you will need a manifest file to tell windows the fnxbasic must use the themes.
But you do not really need it to run your application.

best regards marco
