Hi Dave.

I have found fileacl more useful than xcacls for situations that require special
permissions. See the links below on where to download it and tips on using it.

I tried to do what you want and found that the "detailed rights" had to be used
on the parent folder as "w" alone would not work for write. Using fileacl and
the command below may do what you need by giving the top folder read/list/write
permissions and full permissions to subfolders and files as shown in the
advanced page of security. You can add other users with necessary rights if they
are not going to be inherited. --- Steve

Try for instance " fileacl c:\myfile /g user:rxWwA/f/f "
