<cftry> <CFFILE ACTION="Delete" FILE="full_path_name"> <cfcatch> Something somewhere went wrong! </cfcatch> </cftry> Use CFTRY, as in "I'm about to TRY this, but I'm not sure if it'll work, but I'm feeling lucky". But just in case it doesn't work, I want something to CATCH me. If the delete fails, you'll catch the error, and everything will keep going on as pretty much normal. As an aside, you may want to be using a FileExists <i>before</i> you attempt to delete the file, and then again afterwards to be sure it's really gone. Hope this helps. Dan.
