Set permissions

Hello

Is there any way I can set permissions on a named file to allow/deny access using vb6?

Cheers

Won't let me see that unless I sign up. And I don't want to.

Sure, look into using the SetAttr statement.

SetAttr "MyFile.tmp", vbReadOnly

Thanks. That's good to know however I want to deny all access, including read.

You don't have to ... just scroll it down to see some suggestions.
On the other hand why wouldn't you ???
You are looking for the answer, aren't you?

Ah, I see! Hmm, a bit over my head that. Isn't there a simple way? There usually is for most things!

Yes, I am looking for answers, but not for the 10 dollars a month the site asked me for to sign up!
