Hi,

I have an application that parses an xml file and acts on the content.  No problem 
here.  The XML is made by another application (The content, format and location are 
not under our control) the XML file is located on another computer, and is updated in 
read time by the 3rd party program.

Although the XML file needs to be read by the director program, we don't want to give 
users of the program direct access to the network folder containing the XML file and 
all the other things it contains, as this creates a small security issue.  Currently 
the projector accesses the XML via "importFileInto" with a UNC path name.

So we would like to put network folder sharing permissions on this folder, so it can 
only be accessed with a certain username and password.  Does anybody know of a method 
by which we can pass the username and password from director when we are trying to 
access the XML file, or can anybody think of another solution that may achieve the 
same affect.

Many thanks

Tim
