Problem with file permissions

L

Linda

Domain with Windows 2000 server and Windows XP
workstations. Have set permissions on a data folder as
follows:

Administrator: Full Control
Creator Owner: Full Control
Domain Users: Read, Write, Read & Execute, List Folder
Contents

Want to be able to allow users to delete files they
create, but no one else's files. Also want users to be
able to edit any other user's file.

There are approx. 30 XP workstations, and after testing
three users' computers, the problem is that one user can
edit and save the file, but not delete it as it's supposed
to do; the 2nd user can edit and save the file AND delete
it; and the 3rd user cannot edit and save the file and
cannot delete it.

Any help would be appreciated.

Laura

As stated above, the Creator Owner permissions are set to
Full Control. All files in this particular test folder
were created by one user, and tested at three other users'
workstation.
