The best way around the issue, is on the Server set up a shared folder on the XP Pro machine. Under the Security Tab of the Properties dialog for the folder, Add a user called “everyone”, and then set them to have full Rights for read/write/create permissions.

I have a complex machine control program that has tons of IO. The device I am controlling is a stone age relic and is dumber than a post. When my program senses a communications/operational error it is smart enough to detect it and put up a message box. Upon exiting the message box, I execute a Stop command.

Is there any way to be able to pop to the panel from which the stop was executed? There are multiple control panels depending on what functionality is being accessed and each panel may call the same commands. Changing the labeling in each and every message box, then searching for that message to find which box fired, is a royal pain, I am trying to find a less painful solution.

You could raise an error and then view the call stack. That will show you the function chain leading up to the error.

How about using a RAISE ERROR instead of just a message box. That way you can "go to" where the error occurred.

That's pretty much what the RAISE ERROR is intended for, no?

Vee Users,

Has anyone been able to overcome the following file properties problem?

When running as a restricted user (Windows XP Pro) files that are copied from a network file server (XP Pro) onto the local hard drive are set as read only and the attributes cannot be changed.

Thanks in advance

If you own the file and it is in a writeable location and not locked by being open by some process--- then about the only thing left that would prevent changes is ownership.

Make sure that you own the file if everything else checks out.

The only workaround we've found for that is to have our MIS guy change the user privileges.

Assuming you own the file, you can use the command:

attrib -R file.ext

to make it writeable. So, you could use an execute program object where the command is something like:

cmd /c attrib -R file.exe
