Those were the days. :-))              and since win7 or already in XP?              it gives the "RD" or "RMDIR" command.              This command has new options since 6.22 -> /S and /Q              /S = Removes all directories and files in the specified directory in       addition to the directory itself. Used to remove a directory tree.              /Q = Quiet mode, do not ask if OK to remove a directory tree with /S.              after "RD" you can "MKDIR" your deleted folder ;-)              better geht nicht              >       > great post thanks again William              bye       Ils(e)              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
