Hi all,

I have a function, as follows:

void __fastcall TMainForm::DeleteAllFiles(void)
{
         char szb[500];
         char szc[500];

         SHFILEOPSTRUCT shfo;
         shfo.hwnd = GetDesktopWindow();
         shfo.wFunc = FO_DELETE;
         wsprintf(szb,"%s%c%c",DirList->Strings[HOMENETWORK],0,0);
         shfo.pFrom = &szb[0];
         wsprintf(szc,"%s%c%c",DirList->Strings[HOMELOCAL],0,0);
         shfo.pTo = &szc[0];
         shfo.fFlags = FOF_NOCONFIRMATION | FOF_ALLOWUNDO ;
         SHFileOperation(&shfo);
}

DirList is a string list with directory names in it, the problem is the line

         wsprintf(szb,"%s%c%c",DirList->Strings[HOMENETWORK],0,0);

copies a directory name, say "c:\\temp1" into the pFrom string, when I 
call the SHFileOperation it deletes the "c:\\temp1" directory. What I 
would like to do is delete all its contents but leave the directory intact.

I could generate a list of all the files and folders in the directory 
and delete them individually but I was wondering if there was an easier 
way to do it, i.e. by modifying the code presented above.

Any thoughts

Thanks

Joe
