You can do this with the FileSystemObject:
oFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
oFile = oFSO.GetFile("d:\temp\package.txt")
To set it to read only:
oFile.Attributes = oFile.Attributes + 1
To clear the read only:
oFile.Attributes = oFile.Attributes - 1
Where 1 is the attribute value for the file's read-only flag.
