Default Deleting files from a playlist: Solution

Hey guys,
I look like a "new" member, but I've been lurking for a while - mostly reading the RSS feed for the blog. Anyway, I feel the playlist management features in the Zune could use some updating. One thing in particular that really bugged me was the inability to delete all songs in a playlist. I use the Zune Pass, and you have the ability to download playlists - but no option to delete the songs that it downloads, without manually deleting each file (after clicking view in collection). So I made a small program that does exactly that. You pick a playlist, and it will move the files in that playlist to the Recycle Bin (so you can undelete later on if you want). Use at your own risk, but I'll check back for questions.

How to use this program:
When you open the program, you're presented with a fairly simple screen. Click "Locate Playlist" to find a playlist, and the program will look through the playlist to determine how many music files it references. You'll then be presented with a message box confirming that you indeed want to delete those songs, and also you're told how many songs will be deleted. If you click Yes, the program will then move those files to the Recycle Bin. It will not remove the playlist, though - you can do that in the Zune software. It also won't delete any folders. That's it!
