If SUCCEEDED(objResult.number){ //error handling code }

objDacl DaclLegacyRoles()

// ObjDaclLRoles can now be used with some other DACL wherever a "template" is needed.

objDacl DaclLegacyMetaRights()

Similar to the DaclLegacyRoles function. Returns permissions such as "Can Create Subfolders."

var ObjDaclLMetaRights = DaclLegacyMetaRights();
