The DELETE DIRECTORY command deletes a CDO directory.

    Unless you change directory protection, only the owner of a CDO
    directory or the system manager can delete a directory.

    You can delete only empty directories.

    CDO deletes only the last directory in a fully qualified
    path name. For example, if you specify a directory name of
    [SMITH.DICT]CORPORATE.PERSONNEL.SALARIED, CDO deletes only the
    SALARIED directory.
