I'm trying to use input from a text edit box to delete a file. The input from the textbox will be the file location and the delete button will use DeleteFile() to delete the file.

Use GetWindowText to copy the text in the edit box, and call DeleteFile for that text.

If you read further it says that if it is a control it copies the text of the control.
