Is there an option to set read write permissions permanently. I know that you can go into the info and do a massive cascade., but I need to them to be set to read write permanently. Here is my problem. Every time I save or create a new file my ,Owner details give me read write access (that’s fine)...... But my group details ( access and other) are always set to read only. I share lots of documents and every time I have to go into the file info and set them to "read write" so others can modify them. This is getting really annoying.
Help ??

how about storing/saving the files into a shared volume that has the permissions ignored?

You may want to search around for info about the "global umask".
This article at macosxhints should get you started.
