UNSOLVED
why can't I delete?
When I try deleting a file I get this message -
Error Deleting File or Folder
Cannot delete (file name): access is denied.
Make sure the disk is not full or write-protected
and that the file is not in use.
I even rebooted my computer and I still can't delete this file.
Thanks for the help.

PX97,
You can always delete them in DOS mode (unless you are running XP). However, if you think it is because of file attributes, right-click the filename in Windows Explorer, select Properties, and remove the "Read only" attribute.
