I have a client with two Window's Vista Business systems. The are on a small
office workgroup. System one has a folder on Drive C that is shared with all of their user data on it. System two is supposed to be able to access that data. When the users on system two try to save changes to a file, it says that they cannot and that they have to save it under a different name due to a sharing violation. Is there some trick to sharing in Windows Vista to get it to work right. These systems are two new installs. -- The Computer Dr. |

Is the file currently open by System One? -- Cheers, Chuck, MS-MVP [Windows - Networking] http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/ Paranoia is not a problem, when it's a normal response from experience.

They cannot save it under a different name on that shared drive. It gives a
sharing violation error. They can only save it locally without getting the error. The folder is not open on system one at the time they are trying to open it and use it on system 2 -- The Computer Dr. "Chuck" wrote: On Thu, 7 Jun 2007 21:11:00 -0700, The Computer Dr. wrote: I have a client with two Window's Vista Business systems.

The folder is not open on system one at the time they are trying to open it and use it on system 2 It's an inherited permissions problem. The person who creates it has more permission than the person who's trying to update it. Look at the permissions (authorisation), for both user names. -- Cheers, Chuck, MS-MVP [Windows - Networking] http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/ Paranoia is not a problem, when it's a normal response from experience.
