Set files to read only

[scriptomatic]

I have a network folder with perhaps a couple hundred subfolders inside. Each subfolder contains a file created by running a form.

Users need rights to generate this file, but we don't want them to modify the letter once created. Since I must give them permissions to write to the folder, I'm looking for a script change every file to read only. Then, run it at least daily to set newly-added files to all subfolders to read only.

Any help would be appreciated.

In a console window type: attrib /?
