Is it possible to grant permissions for certain users to see and access folders. Once in the folder I would like to grant other permissions that would allow some users to see everything within the folder and hide inforamation from other users. Is this possible?

You can set permissions down to a file-by-file level if using NTFS, but if you are just sharing a Windows 95 hard-drive, for example, you are limited to sharing a folder with all items within that folder being visible or not sharing a folder.

I know I can set the permissions down to a file-by-file level, but the problem I'm having is that I don't want people not to view inside the folder but hide the folder entirely so they don't know it exists. I think I tried everything.

Thanks for the help. Would you know if there are any third party software that would allow me to do what I've suggested.
