RE: RMVLNK issue

We allow faculty to send emails to students in their class and include
an attachment that we save to the IFS and then send in the email. We
have a process that scans the IFS for files that are over a week old
and delete them. We recently discovered that files with a quote in the
name were not being deleted. I can't find and way to delete an IFS
object that has a quote in the name using the RMVLNK commend. IBM
documentation says if there is an embedded quote that the entire quote
should be in quotes but I have tried all combinations I can think of
and none of them work. What am I missing?

First, scan the string looking for apostrophes and replacing by asterisks.
(By the way, quotes are double-ticks - you're talking about apostrophes.)
