Hi all,
   I'm trying to use SetSecurityInfo(), and I'm including aclapi.h, but I'm
getting the error message,

Ambiguity between 'PACCESS_MASK' and Windows::PACCESS_MASK'.

How should I resolve this ambiguity, and which should I use?

(I'm trying to give a registry key a NULL DACL, so all users can access it.
BCB5 Pro With Patch. Win XP Home.)

BTW, is what I'm trying to do OK? I want to create a key under
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE that all users have write access to (it is a  subkey off
of 'Software'). I'm a bit of a newbie to all this NT based multi-user stuff.

Thanks Claire.
