Removing a directory
If you no longer need a directory, you can remove it with the
RMDIR (remove directory) command. To remove a directory,
first delete any files it contains or move them to another direc-
tory. You cannot remove a directory that is not empty.
To remove an empty directory, such as the WEST directory
under LEDGER, type the following and press
Enter:
RMDIR \LEDGER\WEST
You must give the complete pathname when removing a
directory.
Formatting Diskettes
Before you can store data on a new diskette, you must format it.
Formatting prepares the diskette to accept data written by
MS-DOS.
You can also format previously used diskettes. This process
erases all data on the diskette. Always be sure you do not want
to save any of the data on a diskette before you format it.
The formatting procedure you use depends on whether you are
using an Apex Plus or an Apex Plus 20. Follow the appropriate
procedure below for the computer you are using.
