My apologies, I was referring to Win XP Pro.

There are still a few options available to you for permissions on Win XP
Home, cacls and Safe Mode. The easiest wpi;d be tp boot into Safe Mode (F8,
I think) and then right-click your Quicken folder and select the Properties
dialog. You should now have a Security tab on your dialog and be able to
configure permissions as I described earlier.

Let me know how that goes...
