My application has a DELETE FILE statement - it is deleting an application generated temporary file on a network drive. This works perfectly well on XP client machines but is unusably slow when issued from a W7 client PC. It can take up to 15 seconds to delete the temporary file before the user can proceed.

The user of the W7 client can access the network drive and folder directly and delete the files with no visible delay. It is only when issuing DELETE FILE from within the application that it is taking a long time.

Does anyone know if this is this a VFP issue or a W7 issue?
Thanks
Barry Sutton.
