DIRremove assistance

[chiners_68]

I have a root directory which I know the name of but the directories below this vary.

I basically want to delete the directories below the root directory. The DIRremove only works if I delete the root directory which will reomvec all subdirectories but I cannot & do not want to remove this root directory.

any ideas?

if you're being lazy about it you could create a dummy txt file in the root dir then set the file attributes to read only and then perform a dirremove on the root folder. change the txt attrib back, then delete.

or do it properly and loop through all of the sub folders and delete them.

can you not just put a * for a wildcard folder i.e.

DIRremove("Root\*", 1)
