I often thought about the same Charlie, and you could send it direct to
c:\recycle.bin and it would be almost in the proper place.  To get it to the
actual folder is bit trickery because it differs by OS and possible user
intervention.  If you can read the reg (RBase tools available to do so) you
could get the name\location of the folder verses trying to send it to
//dev/null which is also not going to work(you will get an error message).
Even then there are issues.

 

Perhaps asking for a VB, C++ custom code could get you there also, examples
are out there.  There are also some 3rd party exe files out there, but I
would bet as the OS changes these are inop?

Subject: [RBASE-L] - CSIDL_BITBUCKET

 

Is there a way to add items into the Recycle Bin?

 

I tried something like this:

set var ftemp = (envval('CSIDL_BITBUCKET'))

 

and I get this error:

-ERROR- Invalid parameter ( 639)

 

 

Using this:

set var ftemp = (envval('temp'))

 

will place values into the temp directory  but for some reason Windows is
leaving the files there.  Can they be instantly deleted?
