Using Visual C++ how can i list and remove one by one all folders on an especific path?

Hi:

I need to list and depending on certain condition remove the folders (and its contents) that exists on certain path. and cannot use .Net namespaces, just plain C++ functions.
I searched on MSDN and found "FindFirstFile", "FindNextFile" and "remove" functions, however in the sample code from MSDN i don't understand some simple things like the way to change the code for listing only folders instead of files and the way to assign my path to the parameter. ¿How can i do that?

For setting the path on the code should i use something like this?
char *argv = "C:\My\Path";

And how can i check the FILE_ATTRIBUTE_DIRECTORY of the results (before or after calling FindFirstFile)?

I know this can look simple if you have experience with files and folders from VC++ but in my work i deal most of the time with DB so this is obscure for me.

Thanks and regards,

Johann
