How to get specific folder permission

[Milan]

Hi,

I am new to this group.
I am developing product on .net. It generates some XML files.
But it gives error when trying to generates files in Documents and
Settings folder.
It gives error says "No permission to write or Not authorized to
write".
(Checked Machine permission is set everyone to read and write)
Can i know before wrting to folder its permission ?

But it gives error when trying to generates files in Documents and

Settings folder.

Directly under Documents and Settings, or under the current user's
subdirectory?

Yes, but why do oyu need to know. Even if you check before writing,
the permissions could have changed by the time you actually write. So
you should be prepared to catch permission exceptions anyway.
