If you are in X(Gnome). Click on the file and right click to view properties. Check the permissions to see what the file is set at. When a file is created. Most of the time the files are saved so just the owner is can rw. In the folder you created. See if you can paste a file into the folder you are sharing with that group ID. If you can and don't get an error. Then the folder is setup right.

Check the permissions on the file. They also need to be set to allow anyone to change the file.

No they don't. If the user is a member of the group that owns the file then the group permissions apply.
Remember the permissions priority in Linux. If you are the owner, _only_ the owner permissions apply If not the owner but a member of the group then _only_ the group permissions apply. If neither the owner nor a group member then the other permissions apply.
I created a directory chmod 777 owner tdp group tdpgr as a user frank I created a file, the owner is frank the group is tdpgr the permissions were -rw-r--r-- as a user roland I opened the file and of course it was read only.
So please explain me how you do it, because I can't.

Hello,
I would like to create a directory with full permissions for everybody. So I search google and: create a user tdp create a group tdpgr create directory /home/tdpgr assigned all users to that group chown -R tdp:tdpgr /home/tdpgr chmod -R 2775 /home/tdpgr
When a doc is created from any user it will get the permission -rwxrwxr- x When some user opens the doc it is opened as read-only Why ??????
