Problems Deleting a File

[Mike]

I am trying to delete a excel file after it has been validated for
errors and then put into another folder for processing. My problem is,
when I click on the submit button, the excel file is being put into
the correct folder, but I am getting a permission denied error on my
file2 delete statement below. But if I hit the refresh button, the
file gets deleted the way I want it to. What do I need to do to stop
the permission denied error? Following is the code I am using to
delete the files:

function deleteStoreTemp Files()
{

var file2;
var file3;

file2 = fso.GetFile(sto refolder + filename1);
file3 = fso.GetFile(tem pfolder + "tmp_" + filename1);
file2.Delete();
file3.Delete();

}

TIA for any help anyone can give me!

Re: Problems Deleting a File

it looks like your problem has more to do with jscript or the
FileSystemObjec t than javascript. probably better to ask in
microsoft.publi c.activex.progr amming.scriptin g.jscript
