Re: Deleting a file created by an sqr.

Hi Sunil.
-----------------------------------
SQR help =  "delete"

Deletes the file filename.  The function returns either a zero (0) to
indicate success or the value returned from the operating system to indicate
an error.

Syntax: stat_var        =       delete(filename)
        filename        =       text literal, column, variable, or
expression
        stat_var        =       decimal, float, or integer variable

Example:        let #fstatus = delete($filename)

Function arguments are enclosed in parentheses and can be nested.  Arguments
referenced as x, y, and z indicate the first, second, and third argument to
a function.  Otherwise, functions take a single argument.
Use parentheses to override the normal precedence rules.
---------------------------------------------
Or else use call system/call system using.
