Folder location for exporting Excel documents from access vba

Does anyone know how to refer to a folder that is not "mine" on a remote terminal session.

I know that when i export files to the "My Documents" folder (or delete files) that i use a blank path...such as

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. Kill "ProductionReport.XLS"
But how would i delete a file that is public for everyone.... such as one that resides at

C:\PDF_Printer\Files\

Any help is appreciated. btw, i am not needing this code for harm, i am actually trying to use some code to refer to a public folder for merging pdf files.

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. Kill Environ("systemdrive") & "\PDF_Printer\Files\" & "filename.pdf"
