Folder permissions

I have a folder with subfolders. I do not want anyone to be able to put files within the main folder but they could put files in any of the subfolders. How would I do this in the security settings? (MS Windows SBS2003)

Hi!

Remove write permission for parent folder, leav only read premission. Select subfolder, remove permission inheritance and configure write permissions. How manjy folders are we talking about?

lets say 200
Well, to many to do this manually. Will all 200 folder have the same permissions? Did you consider using utilities like cacls.exe or xcalcs.exe?
tell me more!
