Delete

Delete is used to delete files on the hard disk.

Syntax

Delete (path to file)

More Information

You must be connected to the machine before you can delete the file.

NOTE

Do not open a file that you are deleting. Otherwise the file becomes locked and the Delete operation fails.

Example

This script deletes the file (test.txt) on the local C drive if it exists:

Function Main

Dim textfile As Object

Set textfile = File.Connect("127.0.0.1")

If textfile.Delete("c:\test.txt") = true Then

echo("File Deleted Successfully")

else

echo(“Delete Failed”)

End If

End Function
