Hi Andy, Should have said that we are working with the Course Delivery license and do not have the Content System to which I presume you are referring in your reply. I have tried your solution in the course file store but it does not apply in our case. Thanks for your help, much appreciated.

You need to go into the course files area of the course then click the permissions icon to the right of the file or folder. On the page that follows, choose select roles > all roles (the other option is to use institution roles). On the page that appears, leave permissions as "read" and click submit. Seems to work fine after that...

Our courses were transferred from v7.3 to v9.1. I have set up the Course Catalogue to provide links to a number of guest enabled courses. I have logged in as a student and can open guest enabled courses within the catalogue. However I cannot open any of the files within the courses something which I could do in the v7.3 version. I have checked the permissions on the folders/files in the course file store and set them to allow "guest" access. Still cannot open the files. I am guessing that the "guest" access applies only to those enrolled in the course as guests and does not apply to those who are opening the course from the Course Catalouge. I have the feeling that the answer is staring me in the face but....... I would be grateful if any list members could throw some light on this problem. thanks, Arthur University of Cumbria is a Company Limited by Guarantee, Registered in England & Wales No. 06033238.
