Though deletion is a more complex beast, as there are problems like -f option -what if a dir is in use -what happens if something in a dir is in use, on Windows. It's very hard to get the latter to work: you cannot even delete a dir in windows if the explorer has it open. That said, a TempDir component that not only created a dir on startup, but deleted it on shutdown would be very good for some uses, -steve ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.
