Modify file security rights

[Guest]

I'm working with a code that allows users to modify the security rights of
files on our server. We have been using the Win 2000 resource kit tool
xcacls.exe which is a command-line tool and thus requires you utilize the
shell command.

Although this has been working, I was hoping there were VBA commands that
will accomplish it without having to use the shell command, which has given
unreliable results in the past

Sorry, this newsgroup is for Microsoft Access, the database product.

I'm aware of this. My question is regarding coding security from within
Microsoft Access, the database product.

Your question is nothing to do with database or user-level security in
Microsoft Access - the actual topic of this newsgroup.
