>Is there any way to securely delete a file from VFP, or do I need to look for a 3rd party solution?
If the reason you need to securely delete a file is to protect customer information, then I would suggest PGP Desktop and PGP Shredder (or something similar). It encrypts the data on the hard drive and there are also plenty of 3rd party secure delete programs out there you can try out.
