"Run As" altenrate user but saving data to my own profile

[Guest Spin]

Gurus,

 

Running Windows XP Pro SP3. I run my computer as a limited

(non-administrator). There is one program I need to launch as an

administrator, and I certainly know how to right-click and select "Run As"

and input administrative credentials. But what happens is if I save data

under that program it goes to the Administror's My Documents and not to my

own. So I need to figure out how to use "Run As" but send data to my

profile. This would apply to Windows Server 2003 as well I guess.

The usual method consists of using the "Save as" function which allows you

to specify the target file+folder name.
