Description

Given an acceptable directory name, the FTP_RemoveDir command will delete a Folder directory. An error will be returned if you do not have sufficient access privileges to perform this action. Additionally, attempting to remove a directory which contains items will likely result in a security error.

ftp_ID is the long integer reference to the FTP session established with FTP_Login.

directory is a text value in the format of a HostPath which references an existing FTP directory. The value of the directory parameter may be a full pathname specification or simple folder name. If the shortened form is used then the specified directory must be within the CWD.

Note: You can change the CWD using the FTP_ChangeDir command. You can also know the CWD at any time using the FTP_PrintDir command.
