Readonly file.

When ReadOnly file is being saved(Save as different filename), I wanna
newly created file have a ReadOnly attribute, too.
That is, isn’t there any way to know attributes(ReadOnly) of source file?

Any answer will be great appreciated!

Best regards.

Chang,
A “save as” operation is usually handled by the application program as

  1. Create (or open and truncate) new file
  2. Write contents
  3. Close

The FSD doesn’t “see” any difference between a ‘save as’ operation and
an ‘ordinary’ create operation.
If you want the Read only attribute to be inherited, you will have to
get the application program to do it for you (if it is written by you). :wink:
Hope that helps.
