Deleting files through macro script - QV server tasks

Hi

I am trying to delete some temporary files produced during load using VB macro function. This runs fine when exceuted with QlikView Desktop. But when I run it as a QlikView server scheduled task files are not deleted. I have set unsafe macros option in QMC.

I saw some discussions on the comunity regarding this, but was not able to figure it out.

Thank you

Darius

What about deleting the files from the load script directly like this:

          TRACE Deleting ALL QVDs from Directory;

          EXECUTE cmd /C DEL "C:\MyDataDirectory\*.qvd";

I'm usining
EXECUTE filename.bat

to move files.  Can be deleted the same way.
