Link Files

[Joel]

Hi,

There is a way to link to Outlook to see e-mails etc....

Is there a way to link to files which you see in IE explorer? The reason is because I want to create a query to delete duplicate files in Windows.

Thanks! - Joel

Hi Joel,
take a look at the sample database called Doc Manager at
http://www.datastrat.com/DataStrat2.html
It allows you to build lists of files from the explorer window.

Thanks, I tried it and it worked somewhat.

When I delete the file in Access, it doesn't delete the actual file in
Explorer. Any more ideas of how to do this?

No, you'd have to issue a Kill command to delete the actual file from the
hard drive.
