ACCESS DENIED

We have set up NTFS user security policy on a specific folder to allow only
the modification of the files in the folder. Word creates and deletes
temporary files that it produces once any specific document is opened in the
folder which leads to a violation of the security policy. Whenever I try to
edit a document, it tells me DISK IS FULL, and it denies me access.

We do not want to give delete and create rights to these users. But I want
the users to be able to edit the files at hand with out giving them delete
and create rights.

Any workaround ? any suggestions ? greatly appreciate it.
 
You may also want to post in a Word or Office newsgroup to see what best
practice is. If I remember correctly you need to give the users modify
permissions to the folder if they need to edit files that they are not the
owner of. Good backup procedures will help with problems where users
accidentally delete files and for Windows 2003 you can set up Shadow Copy of
network shares so that user can recover their own deleted files based on the
Shadow Copy configuration for backup times.
