hello, it's me again. Why did the permission checkbox

mark in it...Why can't I change it? Thanks.

Hi SLU Tech,

Search Windows 2000 Help (windows.chm) for "change permissions". Note that the
fourth topic returned is on the subject of security properties of objects, is titled
"Changing inherited permissions", and the text includes the word "shaded".

Also, see the following Microsoft Knowledge Base Article:

KB313398 - HOW TO: Control NTFS Permissions Inheritance in Windows
