Need to find out folder permission without having access permissio

Hi,  I need to list the folder and subfolder security information (such as
which person/group has full access, read access etc) for user's data folder. 
I used "showacls /s".  However, only that user's group assigned access
permission to that data folder.  None of domain admin group, local admin
group, local administrator, even system do not have an access rights.  I
found out "CMDasSYS" utility (freeware), but it did not work.  Is there
anyway to find out folder permission without logging by user who has an
access rights?

That's how administrators *lock themselves out.*  Have your Windows
administrator fix this.

You should ask this question in a Windows newsgroup.  They have all sorts of
scripts for these types of things.
