Unfortunately Microsoft have decided not to port these dialogs to Windows Vista. They do not provide any replacment either, so it would be necessary to do it all manually. I don't currently have the time to do that, sorry.

You can find a sample code to do it on
http://codeproject.com/win32/accessctrl4.asp#xx1422076xx

As you can see, the code needed to read and set permissions is very complex. I really cannot understand why Microsoft have removed that well-working code...

oh, i do not use this dialogs. i was testing TC7 pb3 and thought that it was TC bug or that commands to call this dialogs are changed in Vista.
a bit offtipic: aren't u planing to build scripting framework for task automation? like it is in Krusader (disk commander in linux)

No I'm not. Why should every program have its own scripting language You have to learn a new language for each program. Better use a script for all programs, there are many out there (and also discussed here in the forum).

Also many functions in TC are not suited for scripting.
