I am not extremely familiar with the Qshell commands? Does the QCMDEXC
call have to be prefixed with anything else other than the "QSH CMD" to
make work?

I am working on developing a RPG Application that will load an IFS
folder with image files.  Then it will zip up all the files into a zip
file.  This part is working fine.  However, this will be a nightly
process and I would like to clear the folder before loading and

zipping

again.  So, is there a global command to delete all files in an IFS
folder that can be used in an RPG ILE or RPG Free Application?

Instead

of deleting them one by one.

Use QCMDEXC to run "QSH CMD('rm -rf <directory>')".
