Re: delete IFS files

Is your code exactly as I posted it...including the header specs?

This is required. It is a c function.

I asssure you my example works I have used it many times.

Look closly at the example.

Hi Magesh..

WRKLNK OBJ('/ABC/AED0380155B518BA.XML')
Check AED0380155B518BA.XML this name is correct...??
and also dont give any space after .xml ...check u given XML as extension..

Re: delete IFS files

I would agree with Pavan - but I was wanting you to use the unlink not the wrklnk...
dont you want to delete the object from a program?

Re: delete IFS files

Re: delete IFS files

You could if in CL or using qcmdexc in RPG...
but I assumed (I know @#%@#%@#% outta you and me) that because he was
messin with XML that the program would be RPG. so thats why I
went with the unlink.
