Security on Shared Documents

[Dave]

Hello

I'd like for all users to have Full Control over Shared Documents and all of
its sub folders. What ID or ID's should I have on the Security tab? Can I
do it with "Everyone" only? Do I have to have any other ID's in the list?

I added Everyone with Full Control, but when users add files, other Limited
account users seem to only have read-only access.

Thanks in advance -- Dave

Added?
The default permission is already set to Everyone group with Full Control.
Everyone has full permissions to that folder. You might have changed the
default settings by manually "adding" something to it.

Thanks John. So is "Everyone" the only ID needed for Shared Documents?

I'll take it back. I just double checked on my WinXP Pro shared documents
folder default permissions. There is a user group "MachineName\Users" with
Read & Execute only permission. That might be why your users have read only
permission.

Change the "MachineName\Users" group permissions to Modify. That should do
it.
