needs every time it runs. In addition, the running instance will need
additional permissions specific to each run, but that information must be
specified by the user. CapDesk showed that the user acts of designation denoting
what the user wants done can be used to infer which of the user’s rights
to delegate to the running instance. Am I missing something?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
