Delete Temporary Files Automatically with VBA Kill


 S  M  L  XL  FS  |  Slo  Reg  Fast  2x  |  Bookmark Join Now

In this Microsoft Access tutorial, I'm going to teach you how to delete files using the VBA Kill command. Then I'll show you how to automatically delete temporary files when you close your database.

Adrian from Berwyn, Illinois (a Platinum Member) asks: I'm using the code that you showed in your "Export Report to PDF" video, and it works great, thank you! I'm able to send these PDFs in emails, but, after doing a bunch of them, I've got all these PDF files sitting around in my database folder. Is there a quick and easy way to delete them all from my database?

Members

Members will learn how to use a PowerShell script to delete files and send them to the recycle bin, which the normal Kill command does not do.

Silver Members and up get access to view Extended Cut videos, when available. Gold Members can download the files from class plus get access to the Code Vault. If you're not a member, Join Today!
