Art, This is the Mif2Go output directory,and the html files are being created and put in the output directory and then the wrap directory. So if the problem was the Read-only attribute, wouldn't also prevent the html files from being placed in that directory?
Also, if I right click on any folder in my C drive and select Properties, it has the Read-only option selected for that folder. Even those folders that I created and to which I can add or delete files. And if I unset that attribute, it doesn't stay unset. -----Original Message----- From: Art Campbell [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, September 14, 2009 10:20 AM To: Martha Lee Cc: Jeremy H. Griffith; [email protected] Subject: Re: Mif2Go graphics question Hi Martha, Yes, that's what I'm asking about. If a directory's permissions are set to read-only, as yours seem to be, a process or user isn't supposed to be able to create files in that directory. I'd follow the directory tree upwards to find the starting point for the read-only setting, then change the properties to allow files to be created. You should get a prompt asking if you want to apply it to that directory or all files and sub-directories -- which you do want to do. Art Campbell [email protected] "...
