Hiding Folders

I would like to hide a folder (and/or a document) from every other user in
that goes to that Word directory. The reason is that I am putting templates
specific to that directory and don't really want my boss to see all the
"extra" stuff in the directory. Does anyone have a suggestion?

Thanks.
 
G'Day Sharon,

If you have the Privileges, Right-Click the Folder (in Windows Explorer)
and choose 'Properties'.

Check the 'Hidden' property, then OK.

You also need to:
Tools>Folder Options
View (tab)
In the bottom half, under "Hidden files and folders"
Select "Do not show hidden files and folders".
You need to do this on every PC if this is a Network folder.
 
Yes, make sure your resume is current. If your boss finds out that you have
"hidden files" on your computer he may decided that you are misusing company
equipment. Is that fair? No, but there are a lot of fire-at-will states.
