deleting files
Does anyone know how to delete files from inside a VB 6.0 program? I have a program that works with a bunch of text files, and it needs to be able to delete the files, but I can't figure out how to do it.

thanks.

Hi!

You can use the FileSystemObject (FSO) to delete files in your app.

You can find a lot of samples on the internet by searching on Google, (or any other search engine).

Another way to do it
