[dba-Tech] File Sharing Problem

Gary,

The permissions can be set at the file level. Is it possible that file has had 
the permissions set differently than the rest of the files in the folder? 
Maybe I'm misunderstanding something, but that seems the most likely scenario 
to me... I just don't see it having anything to do with the orientation of the 
image, it's a permissions issue of some sort.
