run autoit function as non-elevated

[gcue]

hello

i have a script that has several functions that require elevation.  however there are a few that will only work if not elevated.  i know i can create a separate script to run those functions with runas.  is there another way to run those functions non elevated within the elevated script?

would it be possible with something along the lines of 

RunWait(@AutoItExe & ' /AutoIt3ExecuteLine ... )

thanks in advance

Hello Yes you can.

That's for an exe though mostly right?

I wanted to run autoit functions like ie_create and inet_get

Don't think that's possible with that script?

Do a try ;-)
