Just noticed: there's another bug you should be aware of.

You're checking for '.' and '..' in the wrong place, ie. when the file is
_not_ a directory.  Don't run your program as it is or it might try and
erase your whole hard drive...

[Deja vu huh guys? :)]

Cheers,
Carl

My date is set on 1995 so that I would use a shareware program that has
expired..

OK, I wrote down the code like this, but it doesn't work. Where's the
problem?

procedure TForm1.DelDir(Dirname: string);
var
 F: TSearchRec;
 ftd: Integer;
begin
ftd := FindFirst(Dirname,faAnyFile,F);
while not ftd = 0 do begin     // while there is a file do the following

if F.Attr = (faAnyFile - faDirectory) then begin  // if file's not a
directory
 if F.Name = '.' then else
 if F.Name = '..' then else
 DeleteFile(F.Name);            // then delete it
 end;
if F.Attr = faDirectory then begin    // if it's a directory
 GetDir(0,F.Name);                    // then change to it
 DelDir(Dirname+'\'+F.Name);          // use my DelDir on that dir
 end;
ftd := FindNext(F);                   // FindNext
end;
FindClose(F);            // the end
end;
