Windows Service blocks VB6 apps to access input files from network?

DH
Hi

Two weeks ago I posted "How to call a VB6 application from windows service application" (on 05/04/04). Thanks for MW's help and it worked. However there is a problem: my VB6 application's connection with network seemed to be blocked
I have a configuration file for the VB6 which pointed to network, \\NetSer1\DataDir\MyinuitFile\.., to get input files. However when the VB6 application tried to access input files through network, it just couldn't get it. If I copied input files to local, for example C:\temp, the Vb6 program worked. (I have full rights to access the network).
I am using Process Object in Windows Service to call my VB6 program

Appreciation your inputs!
