After moving a file (doc, xls qpd, wpd) with windows
explorer the file becomes unaccessible. When I try to
open the file I get the error message "can not access
read only file" This file was not a read only file to
start with. I check the properties and it is not listed
as a read only file. I click the yes button to open as
read only then I get a second popup that says "access
denied". The file is now not accessible by any program.

How can I gain access to these 60 some odd files and what
do I need to do to stop it from happening again?

Thanks
Steve
