>They can see the data, they can select files to retrieve, they can select

>Access is denied
>File is Read-Only - force overwrite
>Name: <file name>
>Local File: <local file name>
>ADSM file: <ADSM file name>

>Even though I click on "Overwrite" I just get stuck in a loop and have to
>cancel the operation.

>Is there anything I have missed here?  Am I trying to achieve the

>it being a "Read Only" problem as the message indicates.
