deleting files Please help

[PITBULLCJR]

Is there a way through code to delete a file? and if it deletes it will it send it to the rBin or will it just totaly disappeer. If it goes to the rBin is there a way to delete it from the rBin? Thanks

use Kill strFileName where strFileName is the full path and filename of the file you want to delete

Kill "C:\WINDOWS\Profiles\Chris\Desktop\Visual Basic\Programs\Vocab Builder\Vocab Lists\Bryan.ini"

Wrong number of arguments or invalid property assignment

netSurfer gave you the correct syntax, try it on a file in the root of the C Drive, just to test it, there's no reason why it shouldn't work, ie.

Kill "C:\TheFile.txt"
