In this series of videos, which are aimed at those who have never coded in PowerBasic before, I cover one element of the language or programming - today it's the use of a library of functions to report on and optionally delete archive or log files.

00:00 - Introduction
01:09 - An Archiving library
02:40 - The key parameters
04:49 - ArchiveFiles function
08:40 - ScanFolder function
11:24 - TrimFileList function
14:53 - LogOrDelete function
16:45 - Finishing up & Testing
19:46 - Summary

I don't work for, nor am I paid by, the owners of PowerBASIC or any company mentioned in these videos , I'm just a fan of their products.
