If you have a copy of Rev, you can copy out the "revDeleteFolder" code from
the revCommon library. It makes the appropriate shell calls.

Ah Ha! In that case, any suggestions on a quick and easy way to delete a
folder which may contain files and other folders (without digging into it
and it's sub-directories and deleting files individually)?

Thanks,
