>Ed (or anyone else that might know). I am trying to implement this API to delete some files before moving on. Is it possible to call the internal DEL command using this API? In the comments it says can start any DOS or Winows executeable. Since DEL isn't an executeable (or .com) file does this make a difference?

George,

DEL is actually a function of Command.com. However, VFP has commands to do this, as does the Windows Script Host. Exactly what do you need to do that either of these can't?
