From: JimKovach on 26 Jul 2006 16:02 I have the same permissions problem on several sites with document library permissions and different users. Example: I have a site for our Sales department and a document library called Sales Orders. When I view the permissions for that DL, there is a user with View, insert, edit, delete items. This user is able to upload files fine, but they are not able to delete any file (even one's they upload) and cannot modify/edit any document. If they try to delete it, they get an error 'Access denied. You do not have permission to perform this action or access this resource. ' The only way I found to work was to give the user Contributor access to the entire site. Obviously this is not a good solution. I have tried deleting/re-creating the DL and assinging the same permissions with no luck. I also tried to re-create the site and DL with no luck. We are running Sharepoint 2003 w/ sp2, and SQL 2000 w/ sp4. Thanks in advance Jim
From: Engelbert on 27 Jul 2006 03:13 There is no single "SharePoint 2003" product. As you posted to the newsgroup for WSS can we assume that is the product you are using ? Are you saying that you have a user who dos not have delete/modify/edit rights to a site but who does have delete/modify/edit rights to a document library contained within that site? (and that when you give them these rights to the site then they are allowed to use these rights in the document library?) There's a certain logic in that given the structure of site/(sub-site)/document library - the usual use for restrictions in document library usage is for the *people* able to do things in the document library to be a sub-set of the people able to do things in the site rather than to give people additional rights in a document library. So there's a possible explanation but apart from someone else posting earlier with the same question, I can't say that I've seen anything here or in the documentation restricting this kind of thing.

I created a group on the site level and then gave that group the necessary permissions to the document library. I don't really see the difference between giving a group permissins as opposed to an individual, but it worked so I am not complaining. Thanks for you quick response.
