That's right. Setting up roaming profiles is a network admin/sysadmin duty. I wear many hats and do Windows/Linux/Mac system administration, network administration, database administration, and desktop/web application design and development. I guess I'm just a whore willing to do whatever is needed/wanted, for money. :) Sometimes I forget that most people are way more specialized than I am. So just specify that the network admin needs to set up roaming profiles. If you save to the user's My Documents (or Application Data, or...) you'll be fine as long as you aren't in the user's hidden Local Settings directory. But then again, if it is an app you are writing, you could just have user's save data to your database, which lives on a server, and forget about the roaming profiles???
