delete folders, subfolders and files (some maybe read only or hidden)

[Pete Gomersall]

Hi All,
I have seen many examples of deleting folders with subfolders and files.
(system.io.directory/info etc delete method)
However, I cannot find a decent code example which will work where some
folders/files maybe read only or hidden. I know, basically have to change
the file attributes to normal.
Has anyone a good example of a URL for a good example?
Cheers,
Pete Gomersall
