That is an idea although I think the XP command prompt version would be "RMDIR /S", "Removes all directories and files in the specified directory in addition to the directory itself. Used to remove a directory tree."

I will check my DOS boot floppies, they should be OK.

In the unlikely event I try to convert that same file again I will remember that.
