Thanks for the posts, gents, but I was expecting to see something about traverse folder. &nbsp;Does this security entitlement not apply or help here?

Gotcha. &nbsp;The takeaway from all of this, I suppose, is just to map a drive to the directory and be done with it. &nbsp;All other approaches sound like undue complication. &nbsp;I was just concerned about the inevitable drive mapping being lost and having to manually, periodically re-map it.

Let's say there's &quot;folder A&quot; that contains two directories &quot;folder 1&quot; and &quot;folder 2.&quot; &nbsp;I want to give someone specific access to folder 2 without them seeing what's in folder A or folder 1, and i don't want to map a drive. &nbsp;How to accomplish this? &nbsp;Thanks.

Let's say there's "folder A" that contains two directories "folder 1" and "folder 2."  I want to give someone specific access to folder 2 without them seeing what's in folder A or folder 1, and i don't want to map a drive.  How to accomplish this?  Thanks.
