Default Moving files

I have moved a file(s) between folders and I can not now open them. The pop
up is telling me the document name or path is invalid when trying to open any
file in the new folder. I have tried changing the permissions on the folder
and files but it won't let me. Any suggestions.

Ta.

Right click for the properties, if you can find the "Find Target" button,
then you've just misplaced the original files...

I've checked the properties on each file but I can't find the "Find Target"
button. Any other suggestions? All I did was drag the files into a new
folder.

Cheers,
