Author Help with accessing applications

I'm the first to say that I'm not much of a windows administrator and I'm just helping out with this situation as I can.

The scenario is this:

Windows SBS2k3 and 5 workstations. I need to add an application to each of the 5 workstations and let the user have use of that application. I think that the user has to be an admin of the workstation, but even when I add them to the admin group of the workstation and install the application under their profile and then logon to the domain, that application is unavailable to them. If I try to use the application logged onto the workstation, under their profile, everything is good. I don't want to implement any group policies (if I don't have to) because I don't know enough about it at this time. Is there any way that this can be done without adding the user to the domain admins group?

Thanks for your help.

Not sure if I can help, but I'll try.

1) What is the os of the workstations?
2) Do you use local or roaming profiles?

If the os is xp, there's a runas option I'll try to get more info on.

P.S. Permissions w/ XP usually default to the most restrictive, but I'm not as familiar w/ Server 2003 permissions. I'll do some checking & come back.
