listing and deleting files in a particular folder

[Southern at Heart]

If the user has chosen a folder, strFolderLocation
How can I loop through this folder and asign all the files with the
extension .gpx to the arrary myArray()? Then I can list them in a messege
box and ask the user to confirm deletion.
How do I then delete the files myArray() in the folder strFolderLocation?
Hope this isn't too hard. Or maybe someone knows a better/simpler way to do
this...
thanks,

Use a function like that found at

http://www.cardaconsultants.com/en/msaccess.php?lang=en&id=0000000027#DirList

in the Do While MyFile <> "" loop add a user prompt to delete or not using
Msgbox... and based on the response the use the Kill statement to delete the
file.
