The name of the directory to erase, including an optional drive.

Remarks
DirRemove() removes a specified directory. You must have sufficient rights to delete a directory.
A directory must be empty in order to be deleted. So, to delete a directory that contains subdirectories, you must first delete the subdirectories (see example below).
Examples
This example uses DirRemove() to delete a subdirectory named C:\VO\ONE, which only contains an empty subdirectory named C:\VO\ONE\TWO:
1DirRemove("c:\vo\one\two")
2siResult := DirRemove("c:\vo\one")

4? DOSErrString(siResult)
