I used the APP HOlD command to store certain hold files in my EDA directory. A few of them I wanted to delete. When I go to delete them from the GUI it states -- Cannot delete "file.ftm". How do I go about deleting those files. Is there some command I have to give or what

Thanks

You can also delete these files by going directly to the server drive and can delete any type of file.

If the WebFOCUS server is running under a different User, the file may be created with a different owner and you may not have the privileges.
