[AccessD] Can a "Scheduled" Access application run under Windows Server 2012 in "Logged Off" Mode?

Couple of thoughts:

1. Your running afoul of UAC - Make sure you check the box "run with
elevated privileges" (or some such - don't remember what it is off-hand at
the moment).

2. Keep in mind that when your in a logged off state, there is no user
desktop, drives may not be mapped, etc.

All,

Earlier, I posted a question that involved a script initiating an Access
application.  After doing a fair amount of experimenting, I believe that
this problem has nothing to do with the script.

I think that it all boils down to whether it is possible to run an Access
application in "Logged Off" mode under Windows Server 2012 R2.

I have a number of automated report jobs that pull data from SQL Server,
Pervasive, and Firebird databases to create reports every night.  These jobs
have worked nicely for over five years while running on an old server with
Windows Server 2003.

Now, with the upgrade to new hardware and Windows Server 2012, I cannot get
any Access application to run in logged off mode via the Task Scheduler.

Has anyone been able to do this?

Have others run into this same problem?

We are migrating from Windows Server 2003 to 2012.  I would guess that 2008
and 2011 are similar to 2012.

Thanks,
Brad
