Folder deletion problem

I'm trying to make a program which will delete a folder under the directory "C:\Documents and Settings\user_here\Application Data"

I have tried "kill" and "rmdir" but I get error 75 msg" It wants me to kill each file under the dir before I can remove any folder.

I'm not trying to kill the app. data folder just a few folders underneath it.

If anyone has any ideas, reply.

Thanks

Nevermind found:

VB Code:

Private Sub Form_Load()
'Replace the 'C:\MyDir' below with the name of the directory you want to delete.
x = DelTree("C:\DIR")
Select Case x
Case 0: MsgBox "Deleted"
Case -1: MsgBox "Invalid Directory"
Case Else: MsgBox "An Error was occured"
End Select
End Sub
 
Function DelTree(ByVal strDir As String) As Long
Dim x As Long
Dim intAttr As Integer
Dim strAllDirs As String
Dim strFile As String
DelTree = -1
On Error Resume Next
strDir = Trim$(strDir)
If Len(strDir) = 0 Then Exit Function
If Right$(strDir, 1) = "\" Then strDir = Left$(strDir, Len(strDir) - 1)
If InStr(strDir, "\") = 0 Then Exit Function
intAttr = GetAttr(strDir)
If (intAttr And vbDirectory) = 0 Then Exit Function
strFile = Dir$(strDir & "\*.*", vbSystem Or vbDirectory Or vbHidden)
Do While Len(strFile)
If strFile <> "." And strFile <> ".." Then
  intAttr = GetAttr(strDir & "\" & strFile)
  If (intAttr And vbDirectory) Then
   strAllDirs = strAllDirs & strFile & Chr$(0)
  Else
   If intAttr <> vbNormal Then
    SetAttr strDir & "\" & strFile, vbNormal
    If Err Then DelTree = Err: Exit Function
   End If
   Kill strDir & "\" & strFile
   If Err Then DelTree = Err: Exit Function
  End If
End If
strFile = Dir$
Loop
Do While Len(strAllDirs)
x = InStr(strAllDirs, Chr$(0))
strFile = Left$(strAllDirs, x - 1)
strAllDirs = Mid$(strAllDirs, x + 1)
x = DelTree(strDir & "\" & strFile)
If x Then DelTree = x: Exit Function
Loop
RmDir strDir
If Err Then
DelTree = Err
Else
DelTree = 0
End If
End Function

or you could just use FSO:

VB Code:

' Set reference to Microsoft Scripting Runtime:
Private Sub Command1_Click()
    Dim fso As FileSystemObject
    Set fso = New FileSystemObject
    fso.DeleteFolder "C:\mytest", True
    Set fso = Nothing
End Sub

Here is the simple code:

VB Code:

Public Sub RemoveDirectory(ByVal sDir As String)
    Shell "Cmd.exe /C Rmdir /S /Q " & sDir
End Sub
'Call this routine as:
'Call RemoveDirectory("C:\Temp\Test\")
