I want to be able to allow a group of users permission to write files but not delete. I would not be unhappy if they could delete thier own files in the folder but I do not want them to be able to delete other peoples. I thought I had got it several times but then I tried it from Word and got error messages about disk full or invalid file permissions.

I also have a problem of users accidentally dragging and dropping folders into other folders; is there a good way of stopping this? It happens several times a week on our network and it can be quite a detective story finding them.
