Delete files

[Marty]

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.

Imports System.IO

....

File.Delete(strFilePath)

System.IO.File.Delete(strFilePath)

Hope this helps,

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'.
