DELETE DOCUMENT doesn’t accept an empty string argument for document. If an empty string is used, the Open File dialog box is not displayed and an error is generated.
WARNING: DELETE DOCUMENT can delete any file on a disk. This includes documents created with other applications as well as the applications themselves. DELETE DOCUMENT should be used with extreme caution. Deleting a document is a permanent operation and cannot be undone.
