You would need to also set permission on the directory to 666 -- in Linux, deleting a file is considered an operation on the directory. Bear in mind that by doing this, any application on the system can read and manipulate files in this directory. There is likely a more secure means of data sharing than this that your apps can use. Or, have them both be a single app. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com Android App Developer Books: http://commonsware.com/books.html --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
