Files on a share network stuck as 'read only' to put the computer to sleep.

By necessity, I use my 98 computer windows that the file server since tempting to access any shares of Vista will cause Windows 9 X to crash. It is already used as a print from the Vista computer server does not have a parallel port.

I worked on a Microsoft Word document and subject to frequent interruptions. When I put the computer to sleep before walking away from the keyboard, it isn't properly disconnect the Win98 system. Wake up to the computer, I am unable to save office documents, because they are locked for editing.

In addition, sometimes even after I close Word or Excel, the system is not disconnected. Even when I stopped all other computers, the Win98 system reports that there are still users connected to the system when I go to stop him so. Is it possible to force the Vista computer to disconnect all network connections before you put it to sleep or stopping then the Win98 system recognizes that no one is online and that all the files will be closed?

I really don't want to have to close a document that I am in the middle of working on when I have to walk away from the keyboard, but this seems the only solution to the problem. Leaving open is the main reason that I put the computer to sleep rather than stop it. Recording locally is not really a good option because I want files stored in one place, and Vista Home Premium does not support synchronized folders.

Any suggestions? I already use the Briefcase feature to save documents on a flash drive, do I have to use the drive in question and transfer it to the server through network disks? This seems to beat the goal of a network.

The affected systems are Windows 98 Second edition and Windows Vista 64 bit Home Premium =.

Hello

Win 98 is a former client OS, server to call (or any other OS cleint) is nice, but this does not mean that they can be found on a peer-to-peer network and behave like a real server.

Under this situation (using Win 98 for a server) it is not advisable to change the files over the network. First copy them to the Vista Edit computer and then synchronize. Return using one of the many free synchronization applications that work on most of the windows releases.

Example, http://www.snapfiles.com/reviews/Allway_Sync/allwaysync.html

There is no judgment of network functionality, if the Application is enabled and go to sleep while a file is open on Win 98 it will stay open. Closing the file needs to be done by the application.

    It would be useful that you told us how you know that they are stuck in "read only".

  • After XP to upgrade file Windows 7 stuck in read-only State.

    Upgraded from XP Home to Win 7 Home Premium. Number of records is stuck in read-only State. I tried what is obvious: clic click on folder, uncheck the read-only and apply to all folders/subfolders. Also, went to security and gave to all users and groups full control to the folder and all its subfolders. But still the read-only State. Only one user has been setup on the computer, and the user has full administrative privileges.

    Same problem for me, I have tried everything suggested above, except that the suggestion of WilliamJE and was still stuck. (I don't really understand the suggestion of WilliamJE.)

    I think I've solved the problem for me but by following these steps:

    -Open 'properties' on the higher level folder to edit attributes

    -Click on "security" tab.

    -Click on "advanced".

    -Click on "change permissions".

    -Click on 'Add '.

    Enter "Everyone" in the dialog box "enter the object name to select.

    -Click on "check names".

    -Click OK

    -Click on "full control" under the "allow" column

    -Click OK

    -Click on the box (turn on) 'replace all permissions of child object with permissions inheritable of this object.

    -Click OK

    -confirm the type "are you sure" messages that appear along the way

    and you should be set! Phew!

  • How could put editable report column as read only based on the other domain

    Hello world

    I'm new to APEX. I have a modifiable tabular report (SQL query). When I choose the column (which is a selection list) of a certain value, I want column B to be read-only (depending on the result of an another SQL described below). It doesn't seem to be a READ ONLY section in the type of tabular report where I could put my SQL condition.

    In other words, "column B" must be read only based on SQL returning following true or Exists:
    Thus, to determine if column B is ready only, I need the following logic:

    SELECT 'x '.
    of tab1
    where key = (value of column A)
    and the flag = "Y".

  • Setup error: you have read-only access to the inventory of oracle

    Hi guys,.

    In some versions of Linux, for example. Fedora, Ubuntu... every time I install the Hyperion product, I get this error "you have read-only access to the oracle inventory." and also the interesting thing, if this error comes Oracle does not settle "OpenLDAP' which is required to run shared services.

    With Oracle Enterprise Linux, and everything seems fine. and I did not get the above error also OpenLDAP is installed.

    any help would be appreciated. attached is the screenshot of the error.

  • Within the last week, that all the folders and files on my hard drive were selected 'read only '.

    I unflagged all the folders and files that I share on my home network, however, I am not able to rename them or save them on my PC from my laptop on my wireless network. This has happened since May 12 and I suspect an auto update changed or recover from something.

    Thanks for getting back to me Mick!

    I did a restore to 5/10 when I had no problem, but the problem persisted.

    I'll have to try Norton support. This may be something they did.

    In the meantime, I managed to change the names of files by connecting to the PC with the account of my wife who as co-owner had equal rights and the sign of the laptop is its ID as well so it worked, but it isn't always fair.
