Delete Folder with files and subfolders

[rockies1]

I need to delete a folder that has files in it and sub folders with files in them...etc...

How can I delete the parent folder and all the subfolders and files in it without deleting the individual files first?

RmDir won't delete a directory with files in it...

This Directory has anywhere from 20-50 subdirectories in it each with countless files in them...

Try the FileSystemObject, eg.

    Dim oFSO As Object
    Set oFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
    oFSO.DeleteFolder "C:\Test", True

Ah Ha!! I had tried:
oFSO.DeleteFolder "C:\Test"
But it didn't work...

Then I tried your
oFSO.DeleteFolder "C:\Test", True
and it worked...

Thanks!!!

Yes, the second parameter indicates where the files or folders in that folder should be removed.

Sorry Howard, the kill is for single files only
