Sorry, I am sure my lack of an explanation has to do with my lack of understanding of the rights structure within RTFM.
When this group of users clicks on the RTFM link on the Left Hand menu, they see the options "Overview", "Articles" and "Topics". When they click on "Topics", they have the ability to 'Browse by Topic', but not the ability to create a new topic. This group of users will be administering RTFM for a given class and they need to be able to organize their articles under their Class which means they need to be able to create a 'Topics' tree under the class without being granted the 'superuser' right. This group does have the rights to extract and add articles to Classes and Topics that have been created by the 'superuser'. They just don't have the rights/ability to create new 'Topics' to place their articles under.

I still don't understand what they can't do. Do they not get the Topics link, do they get the Topics link and can't create them? These are very different problems and you're not differentiating. -kevin -- -kurt
