SYMPTOMS
When you redirect the My Documents folder to a Netware server and then try to delete a file in the My Documents folder, you may receive the following error message after you confirm that you want the file to be sent to the Recycle Bin:
The file is deleted correctly; if you refresh the view, the file is no longer in the folder.
CAUSE
This problem can occur because the shell determines whether the file can be deleted before the file is deleted. When the file is in the My Documents folder on a Netware server, the shell deletes the file.
