[Year 12 SofDev] Visual not so Basic - acces rights issue

[Poultney, Gordon A]

Hi,
 
after many years of resisting, i finally moved my SD class from VB6 to VB.NET - which seems to have taken the 'basic' out of VB! 
 
I have just discovered an annoying issue that our network admin. says he can't fix - yet i have memories of the same issue being resolved on this list a few years ago??
 
When students try to write files (eg a simple textpad program) to the network drive, there is an exception. However, if they do it locally (to the desktop) the program runs fine.
 
Is there a .NET network permissions issue here that is easily solved?
 
thanks
                     Gordon
