3.Click the down arrow from the Select Group field to open a drop-down listing of authorized groups. Initially, administrator is listed as a default group.

The Add Association field displays the current directory folders that currently reside within the target Master. These can consist of G3 HTML project folders, data file folders, etc.

4.Enter a new directory association path into the Adding Association field. This character string can range from 1 - 128 alpha-numeric characters. This string is case sensitive. This information is the path to the file or directory to which you want to grant access. A single '/' is sufficient to grant access to all files and directories in the user directory and it's subdirectory. The '/*' wildcard can also be added to enable access to all files. All entries should start with a '/'. Here are some examples of valid entries:
