You would need to logon as an administrator and if you still are not allowed access
take ownership of the folder/file which will allow you to change permissions to grant
yourself full control and then you can gain access. You can see and change
permissions on the file in file/properties/security. To change ownership go to the
advanced page of the security page/ownership - select administrators and change
ownership. --- Steve
