Windows Server - Different users work with different windows of the same application

Hello,

Is it possible to run an application on a remote server so that each user
who logs in works with a different window of the same running application?

Each window of the application runs in a separate thread. Basically I want
the users to share the same memory of the same app. Each user will work with
his own user interface but all work on the same memory data.

Thank you.

What you are describing has to be done at the application level, you need a
multi-user application.  Terminal Server will not turn a single user ap into
a multi user one.

The application is already a multi user one. It allows to open multiple top
level frame windows, each running in its own GUI thread but all share the
same memory data (which is protected for multi user access). Now I want to
allow remote users to connect to the server, all use the same session but
instead of each working with a different process (like in RemoteApp) I need
each user to work with a different window (or GUI thread in case of popup
windows) of the same process...

I was going to ask more about how this works, it does not sound like a server
w/ multiple clients attaching, which would be the standard definition of a
