You can at least find out what the file permissions are this way:

on mouseUp -- as in a button
  answer folder "Pick the folder containing your file:"
  if it = empty then exit mouseUp
  set the defaultFolder to it
  put the detailed files into tFileList
  filter tFileList with "*Preferences.dat*" -- leaves a single line
  answer item 10 of tFileList -- the file permissions item
end mouseUp

Permissions here can be understood same as on other systems.

One other thought... are the file's permissions set OK to allow rewrite? Or did something change since it was created? I know it's a long shot.


I would have no idea on how to even set a file's permissions on Windows XP. If you can shed some light, otherwise I'm clueless.
