For VB6 you can use the FileSystemObject.DeleteFile method. Or you can use just use the Kill method i.e. Kill C:\stuff.txt.

With .Net you can use many, many ways. For instance you can use File.Delete("C:\stuff.txt"). File.Delete is static so you don't have to instantiate a File object first. Forgive my vb.net, I'm a C# boy.
