How to grant file MOVE permission on NTFS

active-directoryntfswindows-server-2008

I wonder what is needed in terms of the NTFS Security permission to grant user to do file READ+WRITE+MOVE from one directory to another but NO DELETE ?

Any kind of help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I don't think its possible to do this because MOVE isn't a permission in itself. A move operation on an NTFS object involves creating a link in the target directory location and then deleting the link from the source directory location - the delete permission is therefore an inherent part of moving an object.
