Download replacements for two functions in Chapter 12 of the VBA Developer's Handbook. The dhDelTree function provided in the book can cause data loss, and the dhDir function doesn't release a handle to a folder, making it impossible for you to delete the folder after calling this function. Neither function will work for you unless you have the rest of the procedures in the chapter, so there's no point downloading these fixes unless you have the book.

Download the missing CD files from Intranet & Web Databases for Dummies by Paul Litwin.
