It [append data] applies to files only and means the user has permission to append
data to the end of an existing file but not changing, deleting, or modifying
"existing" data in a file. If you apply it to folders and subfolders only then the
"create folders" permission would be the only permissions audited. The link below may
help. --- Steve
