Usually, different access rights have been specified for files in folders in a network environment. Try to
find answers to the following questions:

1. You open a file on a web storage drive that you have not stored yourself. You have read access to this
file. Can you make changes to the file or delete it? What if you have stored it yourself?
2. If the file in a web folder has been write-protected because it is being modified by someone else, can
you read the file?
3. Do you know how read-only access affects the handling of a file? Find out by storing the
document Osoitetiedot in a Temp folder on your computer (e.g. C:temp). Specify read-only access for
the file, open the file with a word-processing program and write your own contact information in the
document. Save the document under the same name. What happens and why? Remember to delete
this document when you have finished with this exercise.
