FILE_DELETE permissions ? [message #23026]

IDL'ers,

OK, stuck again. I am trying to use FILE_DELETE within a procedure to
delete image files after I read and view them. I keep getting the
permission denied error when the procedure runs. However, I can successfully
delete the file at the IDL command line ? Any ideas ?

Incidently, the files are symbolic links residing in a local NFS mounted
directory (pointing to a unix drive on the net). I am running IDL5.4 on a
NT box as Administrator. I can delete the file both from the IDL command
line and Windows explorer ? What is the difference when FILE_DELETE is
executed within a running procedure ?

Thanks
