Maybe ASP can't do this!

No problem--using ASP and DRW with simple custom SQL to delete a database record.

However, one of the fields in the database has the name of a graphics file that was uploaded using FrontPages's File Upload component (so the full "http://" path is available). Is there ASP code (or whatever) that would automatically delete the graphics file when the database record is deleted?

The site is http://www.abfind.com/grande_prairie_cars/maintenance.asp and some data is available using:

password: test
username: test

Thanks!

Evans

If your host is Win NT/2K and you have the appropriate permissions, you should be able to use FileSystemObjects. The following link talks about manipulating .txt files, but any file could be used...
