Thanx Rocky. I have already had a look at those codes. They are just too complicated. I am a complete stranger to vb and I need this script completed by tomorrow evening. Can anyone break it down and give help me with a piece of code which simply checks a folder/file and list the permissions already alocated to that folder/file.
I don't need to change the permissions, I only need to check what groups have what kinds of permissions. E.g. Imagin 'Administrator' is the name of a group. The code needs to check what permissions does the group administrator have, like Full control, Read/Write, etc...
