[Insightl] Accessing folder level groups

Karen,

Can you explain further how/why you are accessing the grp directories
from outside insight?

One thing we've noticed is an "unexpected  result" when remote launch
strings are pointed at grp (non-collection level) groups. 

Apparently the java string cannot find non-collection level directories
and their contents--so the string always goes to the default workspace
and opens the first image listed in the http string. 
Thereafter the" Return" button goes to group/thumbnail window but only
reveals the main collection--not the sub-set that was the target.

We may not have everything set correctly, but that's what we're
finding.

So, it would appear that the "personal" directories are not easily
accessible from outside Insight.

Has anyone had success reading/accessing the content of 'folder level 
groups' from outside of Insight?
Collection level groups are easy to replicate/access outside of Insight
as 
they are just table entries - the lower level personal folder level
groups 
can't be open and read - at least not easily ... any leads
appreciated.
