Oh. I'm trying to write to a subfolder of "Documents" called "Custom Office Templates."

Strange. It could be related to the filesystem virtualization in Windows (circa Vista through 10) but the user's profile folders (Documents, Downloads, etc.) should always be writable by the user. So it's hard to say why without getting eyes on it.

This may be of some help to you. I can work it into Euphoria code tonight.

Although, determining if you can or cannot write a file may not be helpful if the answer is "no."
