(If I just delete then I get a permissions > problem) If you are on XP and you can't delete a folder, it is probably XP being buggy. It tends to not like you deleting folders you've just looked inside... sometimes the esiest answer is to log off, then log back in, then delete the folder. That's my experience anyway. To delete just a controller, or just a model, you'll have to go into your project directory and delete the files you don't want anymore manually. I don't believe generate modifies any files in the directory, it just creates new ones. Delete 'em :) Douglas
