Is there a way of deleting a qvd from script without using external code?

As always, thank you for help.

Is there a way to delete a qvd from my code without using macros, vba or stuff like that?

Kind regards.

Hi , as far as I know it is not possible. Only dropping from memory by Drop table command.

External script is needed.

what are you trying to achieve? we can empty that qvd instead of delete from base location.

In response to PrashantSangle

It will result confusing for someone new, if they see folders with empty qvds. I strive for extreme clarity in my ETL environments, that's why that's a big No-No for me.

Thank you anyway.
