Have used SHFileOperation to do the deletin and record the progress - works great - thanks for the help.
Now for a follow on question. Currently I am using the FindFirst/FindNext functions to obtain a list of files in a directory an have written additional code to recurse through any the subdirectories. Is there a function (similar the the SHFileOperation) which will do this already?
