Hi all,

How to check if a unused file exist and erase it?

pseudo code:

How to do this in Blitz3d Code?

Thanks in advance.

file=OpenFile("C:\temp.txt")
if file>0
   type_file=FileType("C:\temp.txt")
  ;you should check if the file exists, it is a directory...
  deletefile("C:\temp.txt")
  control=FileType("C:\temp.txt")
 if control=0 print "File Successfully deleted.."
end if

Hi degac,

Thank you for your reply.

I simplify as follows:

If FileType("c:\test.txt") = 1
	DeleteFile "c:\test.txt"
      if FileType("c:\test.txt")=0 print "File Successfully deleted.."
EndIf
