i don't know full name of folder

[Aladdin]

hi,

i want to delete a file from a folder which is at @DesktopDir.

my problem is that i don't know the folder name but the folder has 'st02' word at the end of folder name. (without quotes)

i know this is not the full name of folder but i want to delete a text file from it.

FileDelete(@DesktopDir & "\st02\old.txt")

the above code is not working because i don't know the full name of folder.

please help me.

I don't understand very well why you didn't know the name. Generic name? Although, you can check through FileFindFirstFile() function. The wildcard could be "*st02".

I think you should use an udf wich search for folders and then you make string search in folder names for find the good one
