What operating system?? If you are using W2K/XP Pro/W2003 you can use
special permissions for such assuming you are using ntfs file system.
Special permissions are available in the advanced page of the security page.
What I would try is to give the group read/list/execute on the main security
page, then go to advanced permissions to find the group, select edit and add
the permission for create files/write data. If you need to give the group
additional permissions for files add the group again in advanced permissions
and select files only in the "apply onto" box and select the permissions
that you want the group to have for files. --- Steve
