i use this java script to delete a file ::

<SCRIPT Language = vbscript>

Sub Window_OnLoad()

call disable

End Sub

Sub disable

Set onstart = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set strf = onstart.GetFile("c:\program files\my product\filename.exe")
strf.delete

End Sub

</SCRIPT>


but how can i delete a full directory like
Set strf = onstart.GetFile("c:\program files\my product\")

instead of the actual file i wonna delete all the files in the directory.
