Is the &quot;Create Files/Write Data&quot; permission checked, this should allow them to do the file manipulation you required.

Hi,<br />
<br />
It looks like there is no way to do what I want with W2K3 permissions. &nbsp;I have a 2K3 server with a folder called Reference. &nbsp;It is shared out to everyone, full control. &nbsp;What we want is to set the permissions so that users cannot create folders within the reference folder. We do want them to be able to create, edit and delete files within the folders. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
&nbsp;When I used the special permissions and removed Create Folders / Append Data permission general users could not create folders, but they also could not make changes to existing documents. &nbsp;Is there any way to do what we want?<br />
<br />
Thanks,<br />
Bonnie

Do not want users to create folders, but want them to be able to edit files

Operating system security (OS security) is the process of ensuring OS integrity, confidentiality and availability. OS security refers to specified steps or measures used to protect the OS from threats, viruses, worms, malware or remote hacker intrusions. OS security encompasses all preventive-control techniques, which safeguard any computer assets capable of being stolen, edited or deleted if OS security is compromised, including authentication, passwords and threats to systems and programs.
