    Is there a function to delete an existing file? Or alternately, to delete the contents. Looked through the Help, no help.

    Solution...

    Just use the "wt" parameter for the f.open command. This will create and overwrite the existing file.

      Thanks. That solved my problem.

      if (f_Log.exists())
      f_Log.open("wt");
      f_Log.open("at");

        Same question different problem. This time I actually want to delete a specific file. Not just overwrite it. Is there a function to do this?

        Thanks.

          Hello Gavishti,

          I don't think we have a delete method enabled for the file object. I sent a message to development to find out for sure. I'll let you know what I find out.
