    The actual process of modifying file permissions is not as straightforward as you might think. Keep in mind the sample code in that article is written in VB5 and some (probably a lot) of it won't work exactly the same. Have fun

    You know, you'd probably have a much easier time just getting the task accomplished by using the command-line tool cacls.exe:

    You can script something in VBScript that can invoke cacls and perform a bunch of commands based on crap you fill in with dialog boxes generated by VBScript etc.
