Thanks for that. I first thought that's it. I am on XP Pro so this doesn't seem to apply. I do see the security tab
if that is what you mean. But the 'Group or user names' box only selects for which user/group I want to modify
the permissions, doesn't it? I don't want to modify or look at permissions.
I am actually looking for the information I see in ls -l as the group, i.e. column #4.
I am trying to fix a completely hosed file system and seem to have quite a bit of trouble with that... Something's still missing.
Thanks again for your quick reply.
