Ok deltree doesn't work in nt based systems so try this

"rm -s -q P:\PCL\20091027"

Don't know why they dumped deltree in nt based systems. Think xcopy another of my fav commands doesn't work on nt systems either. 

Hope this works you shouldn't have to delete the files first with those command line switches.

I have a process on a WINDOWS system, using filePro 5.0 that creates a 
folder, writes many pcl documents in the folder, translates all the 
documents to .tif (that is written to another folder).

Once the files are translated, I want to clear the files in the folder, 
which I can do.  But I am unable to remove the empty folder at the end.

P:\PCL\20091027  would be the folder name sample.  My tiff translator 
does not like more than 64 files per folder, so I just continue and make 
folders with A-Z appended to the name.

I can clean out the files but
system "rmdir P:\PCL\20091027" will not work.

Anyone got a solution to this one?

Nancy
