sub KillThem
Dim TheDrive as string
Dim TheFolder as String
Dim TheFile as String
Dim TheExt as string
Dim TheCnt as integer
'assign to meet your needs
thedrive = "C:\"
thefolder= "My Documents\"
for TheCnt = 1 to 2
select case TheCnt
case = 1
TheExt = "*.img"
case = 2
TheExt = "*.dat"
end select
thefile = dir(TheDrive & TheFolder & TheExt)
if thefile <> ""
do while thefile <> ""
thefile = thedrive & thefolder & thefile
kill thefile
dir()
loop
next TheCnt
