Look at FileGetAttrib() ..

And FileSetAttrib()

[Hello12345]

Yes, i tried that, and it works.

i was just wondering why it does not work with hidden+system files.

Is this done in purpose?

Thanks for all the help..

According to the table under #7 at http://www.claymania.com/dos-primer.html

DOS cannot delete hidden or system files either. (But Explorer can....)

[Hello12345]

Sorry. I just checked again, it works.

must have been sleeping.

Thank again..

The table is incorrect, CS. The DOS command below will delete a hidden file or any other attribute that I set it for.

Del /A:H *.txt

Just goes to show: Don't believe everything you read on the internet I wonder if the table is only accurate for *old* versions of DOS.
