Re: Deleting a folder from the IFS

Albert,

Try WRKLNK on the parent directory then take option 2=Edit. Find the folder
you're trying to delete and use option 9=Recursive Delete on that folder.
This works on later OS versions but I'm not sure about V4R5.

Kind regards,

BJ

I need to get rid of a folder but it contains other folders and read only
files so the system won't let me do it.

I have tried RMVDIR with RMVLNK(*YES) and I have tried it using FTP.

I just want to blow away the folder. I have to do it from the AS/400 or
via FTP. The system is at V4R5.

Thanks,

Albert
