try this...

[CODE=vb]
Dim s As String
For Each s In System.IO.Direc tory.GetFiles(" c:\temp")
System.IO.File. Delete(s)
Next s
[/CODE]

[CODE=css] string s;
foreach (s in System.IO.Direc tory.GetFiles(" c:\\temp"))
{
System.IO.File. Delete(s);
}
[/CODE]

owh.. good.. it works... thanks man!

it deletes all the files but not folders.. and this maybe due to the "read only" on the folders...
how do i change this? directory.SetAc cessControl?

because everytime i tried to change the status.. it will then become "read only" again...
