Hi,

In VB.NET, is there a similar way as in VB6 for deleting files?
Dim fsoFileSystemObj
Set fsoFileSystemObj = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")

fsoFileSystemObj.deleteFile (strFilePath)

Thank you

Marty
 
Marty,

..Net's FileInfo class has a Delete method that can be used to delete a file.

The online docs on FileInfo give an example.

In VB6 I would have used 'Call Kill(FilePath)', and you can still use
'Kill(FilePath)' in .NET. Alternatively you can use
'System.IO.File.Delete'.
