Hi,

I have managed to do something that really has me baffled.  WriteNow
can only be run by root --- If another user tries to run the program
the following error occurs:

     File system error.  You do not have permission 
     for that operation

However all the other applications work fine.  I have tried every
varient of chmod that I know (chmod 1755 * , chmod 4755 *, chmod 6755
*, on the WriteNow.app directory and its contents to no avail at all). 

Has anyone seen this error?  (I apologize beforehand if this question
has been raised before).  Does anyone know how to fix it?

Much Thanks in advanced.  Please respond via E-Mail and I'll summarize.

---Jack
