I've found this:

code:

---

File.DeleteFile(File);

---

I think the folder needs to be empty first anyway...

It should just be

code:

---

File.DeleteFolder(Folder);

---

"File" must be a FileSystemObject.

It looks just like this:

code:

---

var File = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");
File.DeleteFolder("FolderNameToDeleteAsString");

Thanks, it works, but not quite.

code:

The folder is read only, so how else can I keep one specific window from recording chat logs?

I'll post my code, but you'll plainly see that I borrowed the entire first chunk of it from the usay script.

code:

---

function OnEvent_ChatWndDestroyed(ChatWnd)
{
var i = new Enumerator( ChatWnd.Contacts );
var thedude;
switch( ChatWnd.Contacts.Count )
{
case 1:
     thedude = i.item();
     break;
//we dont really get here in real life
case 0:
     //talking to myself again?
     helpstring = "It seems like nobody wants to talk to you\n\rAre you talking to yourself again?";
     Interop.Call("User32.dll", "MessageBoxW", 0, helpstring, "USay - Error", 0);
     abort = true;
     break;
default:
     //gangbang mode
     var contact_email = GetContactEmail( Command[j], ChatWnd.Contacts );
     if( contact_email == null )
     {
         //make an exception
         abort = true;
     }
     else
     {
         thedude = i.item();
         while( !i.atEnd() && i.item().Email != contact_email )
         {
             i.moveNext();
         }
         j++;
     }
}
var contact_email = thedude.email
if ( contact_email == "email@email.com" )
{
Interop.Call("User32.dll", "MessageBoxW", 0, "called", "USay - Error", 0);
var File = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");
File.DeleteFolder("C:\\Documents and Settings\\UserXP\\My Documents\\My Chat Logs\\folder");
}
}

Why delete it when you can just disable it from logging (FOR THAT CONTACT)

this is some pseudocode, but the important functions are real

OnEvent_ChatWndCreated(ChatWnd) {

var contact = <whatever to get email>

if contact == "email@email.com" do:

The ChatWnd::ChatLogEnabled property sets or gets the "Logging" option of the chat window. This affects whether or not Messenger Plus! saves the content of the chat in a log file. This does not affect Messenger's own XML logs.

}

Set it to false, and it'll go back to true once you close the window.

Also, if the window is closed and re-opened, the property is set back to its original value based on the user's preferences.

Isn't there a filter option in the preferences where you can activate/deactivate logging by contact?

CBA to check, and I'm mixed up about the different Plus! versions -_-

Haha, I wish I knew that. Oh well, I have learned some with playing around with this, so I want to finish now.

code:

---

Var ChatWnd::ChatLogEnabled = false

I don't understand how to set that to false, I don't know this language at all. I did come across that in the scripting help file though, just so you know I did try to do it myself.

---

JScript code:

---

ChatWnd.ChatLogEnabled = false;
