Deleting an Item

[This is preliminary documentation and subject to change.]

To delete an item from a folder, use the DeleteRecord method on an ADO Record object of that item you want to delete.

[VBScript]

Dim Rec
Dim strURL

Dim DomainName
Dim strLocalPath

'specify your own domain
DomainName = "microsoft.com"
'specify a URL to the folder or item to delete
strLocalPath = "public folders/territories"

Set Rec = CreateObject("ADODB.Record")

'this URL is for a public folder
strURL = "file://./backofficestorage/" & DomainName & "/" & strLocalPath

Rec.Open strURL
Rec.DeleteRecord("/east.txt")


Rec.Close

[Visual Basic]

Dim oDelRec As New ADODB.Record

'Assume strURL is a string variable
'that contains a valid URL 
oDelRec.Open strULR
oDelRec.DeleteRecord

Set oRec = Nothing
