By default, you can user account type in Control Panel / User Accounts, but there are further account type that you can`t change from Control Panel / User Accounts . For example Power User, Backup Operator, debugger user, guest, help services group, rote desktop user and …

3- double click on the user you want to change

4- in dialog box click on “Member of “ Tab

5- click Add button > and in Select Group click Advanced button then click “Find Now button”

I believe it's only on XP Pro, yes. Thats one of the things I hate about Home - they cut out a lot of useful little features. But then again, how many run of the mill users need to change their account type? Most probably have the one account created at setup. ;)Playing around in that same area you can also set a lot of local security policies. Not sure of the tabs and such since I'm on a Linux Box, but I know somewhere in that you can change logon policies and such. Fun to look and mess around with if you have some free time and enjoy customizing.
