Hello Jeff,

 That is an interesting behavior which I was not expecting. It should be
implementation specific of the TxStore all right, although I never looked
into that code.

Miguel-

Thanks for getting back to me..

I am using ACL's to control access but I'm not sure that will help..

The real problem isn't that the user has access to delete the folder, that 
part is done. The problem is that when all the files in the folder are 
gone, the folder is still present in the metadata slide keeps, so it shows 
up accessing it, but it isn't present on the underlying file system. The 
folder in question is required to be present on the file system for 
external applications..

If there is at least one file in the folder all is well, remove all the 
files and slide removes the folder from the file system because its empty 
but to the slide end user it appears as if it still exists...
