restricted file moving within windows folders

Guest

Hi.
I wondered if it were possible to put restrictions on where specified users
could move files - more specifically if i could give specific users MOVE ONLY
access to move files within sub-folders to a specific folder? my situation
is on a shared network, and my understanding for users to be able to MOVE
files at all, they need to be given DELETE access, and DELETE access gives no
option to restrict movement.

Hoping someone may know something i don't know.
thanks

There is no such right, and no combination of rights you can give to emulate
it. Moving a file will require the ability to delete since a move is
nothing but a COPY followed by a DELETE.
