Thanks Kyder, that worked great. I can live with EVERYONE on the share. Hopefully Veritas gave me the proper permissions. If not, have you already tried to modify this FOR batch file for use with XCALCS? I will try to see what I can do with that maybe, as I think I will end up needing or wanting to use it... If not for this, then probably for other things in the future.

Thanks again... just what I was looking for.

Thanks Popovk for the information JSI. I already knew that one, but I did not want to have to manually go through that list. We already have too many shares that are not valid which cause Event Viewer errors because our Helpdesk people have deleted folders without UNSHARING them first. Kyder's solution only creates shares for folders that currently exist without me having to manually intervene. The RMTSHARE.EXE program does allow you to change the SHARE permissions, but it was made for NT 4.0 and is not in the 2000 version, I have not tested it. However, as I said above, I can live with the Everyone on the share and use NTFS permission to control access.

Now let me see what I can / can't do with XCALCS

Thanks again
