Vista is something I hope goes away and soon.  Unfortunately, I will be
stuck with using it in my workplace for a while until they get fed up
with all of the complaints and move on to Windows 7.

Is there anything we can do to make the tests pass without using M$
tables?  Can we create tables of our own that will pass?
