DCFirst Claim
1. A system for providing remote control of data directory structures across at least one communications network, comprising:
- a computer server, the computer server coupled to the communications network;
a remote data directory structure management computing application, the remote data directory structure management computing application operating on the computer server to process received requests for remote data directory management of desired data residing in directory structures by participating users; and
a profile data store comprising information relating to the data and data directory structures accessible to each of the participating users, wherein the profile data store is queried for the data directory structures accessible to each of the participating users, wherein further a single directory structure from among a plurality of the data directory structures associated with the profile data store is selected by each of the participating users for modification.

Abstract
A system and methods for remotely accessing, retrieving, and transmitting data offering remote data management control and verification of data delivery is provided. In an illustrative implementation, the present invention comprises a computing application operating on at least one computer server that cooperates with at least one communications network to which participating users have access. The exemplary computing application coordinates the delivery of desired data its corresponding data directory structure information to participating users over the communications network. The present invention further provides notification of delivery of data to intended targets using the communications network.

13. A method for providing remote data directory structure management across at least one communications network comprising:
-
receiving at least one request by a computing application operating on a computer server over the communications network for remote management control of data directory structures from participating users offered through a computing device coupled to the communications network; processing the request to provide the remote management control over the data directory structures by providing data directory structure information if deemed accessible from data stored in a profile store relating to the data and data directory structures accessible to each of the participating users, the profile data store being queried for the data directory structures accessible to each of the participating users, wherein a single directory structure from among a plurality of the data directory structures associated with the profile data store is selected by each of the participating users for modification; delivering desired data and the remote management control over the desired data to identified delivery targets by the computing application over the communications network; generating at least one notification of the delivery of the desired data to the identified delivery targets upon the delivery of the desired data to the identified delivery targets; determining if user requested data is accessible based on the information in the profile data store; and delivering the user requested data and sending a confirmation of the delivery. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 17)

18. A system providing remote management of data directory structures across at least one communications network comprising:
-
at least one computer server, the computer server operably coupled to the communications network; at least one client computing device, the client computing device operably coupled to the communications network; a computing application, the computing application having processing rules to process requests for remote management of data directory structures, the requests originating from the at least one client computing device and comprising a request for desired data found in a corresponding data directory structure, wherein the computing application provides control over data directory structures to participating users; and a profile data store comprising information relating to the data and data directory structures accessible to each of the participating users, wherein the profile data store is queried for the data directory structures accessible to each of the participating users, wherein a single directory structure from among a plurality of the data directory structures associated with the profile data store is selected by each of the participating users for modification, the computing application determining if user requested data is accessible based on the information in the profile data store and, if so, delivering the user requested data and sending a confirmation of the delivery. - View Dependent Claims (19)
