Can you create a file structure of embedded folders based upon a structure
existing in an Excell Spreadsheet.
We have a logical structure created for storing files and information which
has been developed in Excel.
WE wish to recreated this as a repository file structure but do not wish to
have to make some 6000 folders 1 by 1!!!
 
I don't know of a way to do such using information in Excel unless you can
somehow convert it import it into a security template. You can view, create,
modify, and manage security templates via the mmc snapin for security
templates and you also can view the security template .inf files such as
setup security.inf to get an idea of how they are structured including the
ones that contain information for file system. Otherwise you may want to
see if using inheritance can help you create your folder structure easier
and maybe use command line tools such as fileacl and xcacls.vbs which give
you a lot of versatility. --- Steve
