Hi,

From inside Access I want to delete a file in a directory. How will the
Visual Basic look like?

Access 2002

Any help will be appreciated!

Hi,
you can use Kill statement

Kill "C:\myfile.txt"

 

[samuel]

what about an if statement to see if the file exists.

if it doens't, do nothing.

if it does, then delete.

Hi,

if len(dir( "C:\myfile.txt"))>0 then _
Kill "C:\myfile.txt"
