| 333361 | 2005-03-12 09:04:00 | thanks johnboy still find it hard to follow, sorry guys just cant follow it :( what i want to do from the administrater user is just make sure that as per my prev example if there are folders a, b, c on administrater only make folders a, b visible on just an ordinary user, eg from administrater how do make sure that folder c cant be seen by normal users? is it just a simple act of right clicking on the folder and ticking hidden on the properties tab? much appreciated and thanks in advance Term X |

| 333362 | 2005-03-12 10:11:00 | at the moment, apart from the my own personal my docs folder (administrater) all the folders visible in adminstrater are still visible in the other users (limited status). so i want to unshare some folders rather than share as theyre already all showing as shared. i must be making this sound more confusing than it really is lol :help: :@@: |
