Hello,

I would like to create program which delete files using * symbol. I tried
to use this code but it is not working:
File.Delete(@"d:\example.*");//filename example, directory everthing, it
stop here : file not found

Any idea?

Thanks
Pujo
 
use System.IO.Directory.GetFiles to get a list of files that match the
pattern and delete them one at a time using File.Delete.
