I'm using the fso module to manipulate text files on the web server, but I'm recieving a "permission denied" error when using the delete() function!?

How can I resolve this?

 
Hello,

Grant delete permission to IUSR_MYCOMPUTERNAME on the folder and files you want to delete. That is something your sys admin might want to do. In theory delete permission is all you need, in practice, I am only able to delete and overwrite files when IUSR_MYCOMPUTERNAME is granted Full Control.

Hope this helps,
Richard
