can anyone code this better?
the function is to locate and delete files in a directory
Code:' remove hidden and readonly attributes SetAttr file_name, vbNormal ' Check for dir If GetAttr(file_name) And vbDirectory Then ' if true delete it DeleteDirectory file_name End If ' set lbl to display current file Me.lblFile.Caption = file_name Me.lblFile.Refresh 'check to see if the file is locked If FileIsLocked(file_name) Then ' if true unlock it UnLockFile (file_name) ' take ownership ChangeOwnerOfFile (file_name) 'Delete it. Kill file_name Else ' just delete it Kill file_name End If
