I got it to work with your command line but only when I changed the
subfolders flag back to "1". That doesn't delete the folders but it
does the files in the subfolders. Using the "3" flag did not delete
files in subfolders for me.
The help file states that for subfolder flag "3" requires "(use
file.isfolder to select folders)". I'm not sure how to use that.
Deleting just the files in the subfolders is okay for now.
Thanks for your help, it is working for me now.
