Answer 5

NSFileManager * FileManager = [NSFileManager defaultManager]; NSArray * Paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains (NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES);

//Faccio la dir dei file *.txt da prepare NSDirectoryEnumerator * DirFile = [FileManager enumeratorAtPath: [Paths objectAtIndex: 0]];

IFileTxt = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init]; NSString * file; while ((file = [DirFile nextObject])) {

//In your case you need to test substring = "ZZ"
if ([[file pathExtension] isEqualToString: @"txt"]){ 
    [FileManager removeItemAtPath:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@/%@",[Paths objectAtIndex:0],file] error:nil];
}

}

[IFileTxt release];
