Using VB6, I can delete a *.txt file by using
Kill filename 
but when I try to use it on a *.log file I get a permissions error.  What is a method that I can use to delete a log file using vb 6 please?

Delete Log File Using VB6

Visual Basic is Microsoft’s event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) for its Component Object Model (COM) programming model. It is relatively easy to learn and use because of its graphical development features and BASIC heritage. It has been replaced with VB.NET, and is very similar to VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), the programming language for the Microsoft Office product line.
