If you notice, when you set the read only aspect of the folder using the shell, then look at the properties of the folder, the box isn't checked. Its greyed out. This is because you set the folder itself. When you use the checkbox in the proprieties inspector for the folder, you're actually setting the rules for the contents of the folder, not the folder itself.
I suspect, if you create a folder, then check that box, then check its attributes from the shell (attrib foldername) that the folder itself won't show R as one of its attribs. The checkbox isn't doing the same thing as the shell call. Freaks me out a bit actually! _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
