When I try to load a floppy disk I get the following
message.

You do not have access to the folder 'A:\'. See your
administrator for access to this folder.

Any ideas folks?

Thanks,

John
 
Hi,

Are you the adminstrator?
If not, you are not permit or have access right to use
the floppy in your profile.

XP users can be "administrators" or "limited users" and
there are some other options too, but those are the basic
user types.

Open the control panel and click on the user icon. Look at
the list of users and see whether you are listed as
administrator or limited user.

There are several ways that you could be denied access when
you should have it, a virus comes to mind or a corrupted
user profile file.

You probably should ask about ME on the ME newsgroup and not
the XP group.

| Thanks for your response. I probably should have mentioned

|
| Is your advice still valid?.
