File creation permissions

[Matthew Williams]

I was able to get my code to word so now i'm exporting a few dozen
text files, none of which exist.  Therefore when i'm reaching my
export statement I get a permission denied.  I've been able to get
around this so far by seeing what filename its trying to create,
creating it myself and chmoding it 777, then it has no problems.

How would I be able to run this output process with the ability to
create a file with full permissions?

Thanks!
