Or delete the directory and recreate it again.

Loop is a good idea. Thanks.

Use cfdirectory to list all of the files in a folder and loop over that list
deleting each one.  Or create a .bat file on the fly to delete all files in
that folder.

Is there a way to delete all files in a folder without deleting the folder?

<cfscript>
<... FileCount CFC from cflib.org ...>
</cfscript>

<cfset VARIABLES.directoryFileCount =
GetFileCount("#REQUEST.absolutepath#\admin\authentication\captcha")>

   <cfif VARIABLES.directoryFileCount NEQ 0>
       <cflock timeout="10" throwontimeout="No" type="exclusive"
name="deleteCaptchaFiles">
            <!--- Delete the files within --->
            <cffile action="delete"
file="#REQUEST.absolutepath#\admin\authentication\captcha\*">
       </cflock>
    </cfif>
<cfoutput>#VARIABLES.directoryFileCount#</cfoutput>
<cfabort>



Thanks,
Mark
