override rw-r--r--  admin/admin for massage.xls?

Check the permissions on the directory?

Yes, I did...

-bash-2.05b$ ls -la
total 460441
drwxr-xr-x  18 admin  admin       1024 Nov 18 08:38 .

add alias ls 'ls -f' to shell startup script
from man ls:
 -f      Output is not sorted.

How does sorting the output of ls affect the ability to remove the file?

To original poster: is the immutable bit set on the file?
