Do you want to delete the directory, or the files in the directory(and leave the directory)?
if you want to delete the directory,
Dim fso
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject"
fso.DeleteFolder("c:\MyDir\"
If you want to delete the files
Dim fso, f, f1, fc
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject"
Set f = fso.GetFolder(folderspec)
Set fc = f.Files
For Each f1 in fc
f1.delete
Next
Note: I haven't tested any of these.
