hi,

I have a problem when trying to delete a file.

I have to extract some information from a file, and then I have to delete
it. When I try to delete it after I read it, I get a "Access denied" error.

help pls, Neven

StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(sFolderArhiva + sShortFileName);
while ((sLine = sr.ReadLine()) != null) {
    try {
        if (sLine.Substring(0, "ApplicationItem=".Length) ==
"ApplicationItem=") {
            docType =
DohvatiTipDokumenta_TipDokumenta(sLine.Substring("ApplicationItem=".Length));
        }
    } catch (){}

    try {
        if (sLine.Substring(0, "ApplicationTag=".Length) ==
"ApplicationTag=") {
            ID = sLine.Substring("ApplicationTag=".Length);
        }
    } catch {}
}

sr.Close();
sr.Dispose();

try {
    File.Delete(sFolderArhiva + sShortFileName);
} catch {}

Maybe you do not have enough permissions to delete that file, check file's ACL.

Thanks, I solved this one.
The file had readonly property turned on
