yes i broke the inheritance & also copied the permissions.

My current scenario is :
AA - properties - security - 'only the LIST FOLDER
CONTENTS is checked' - advanced - permission entries -

1. type - deny - DELETE SUDFOLDERS & FILES, DELETE, CHANGE
PERMISSIONS, TAKE OWNERSHIP.

2. type - allow - TRAVERSE FOLDER / EXECUTE FILE, LIST
FOLDER / READ DATA, READ ATTRIBUTES, READ EXTENDED
ATTRIBUTES, READ PERMISSIONS.

BB - properties - security - FULL CONTROL is checked.

im not geting the desired result with this. please advice
on what changes i need to make.
