Delete to Recycle Bin

[NeonBurner]

am i missing something, is there an argument after file.delete that would send it to the recycle bin, or do you still have to do the api call and actually move file to recycle bin like vb6, i cant seem to find any arguements for file.delete i know directory.delete has

directory.delete (sDir, true) ' which deletes recursively by force

any1 know this off hand?

heres the api call is there a better way???
