Unfortunatly faq184-2997 was written a longtime ago and you will finfd the "How to delete a folder " Windows Scripting in faq184-4140 was was written more recently.
As for the API call to remove a directory:
Code:
DECLARE INTEGER RemoveDirectory IN kernel32;
STRING lpPathName
lpPathName = "C:\Temp1"
? RemoveDirectory (lpPathName)Mike Gagnon

Mike,
Too weird! When I click on the link you have provided to the same FAQ that TeknoSDS posted I get a completely different FAQ.
