I have made an app with VB6.0 - SQl Server7.0 running in W98/NT,and now I want to put my exe in a proctected folder.
How do I protect a folder of delete or update actions.??
Which is the usual place for an exe file if you want to protect it??

Any advice will be graetly apreciatted.

I usually don't bother with permissions to protect things. Instead, I hide files in places no one would look. Burying it in a directory under \window\system generally works fine, after that attrib +r filespec (or right-click and select read-only) and you should be fine.
