* It requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
* See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

* This example uses a previously obtained access token having permission for the 
* Google Drive scope.

* For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use CreateObject('Chilkat_9_5_0.AuthGoogle')

loRest = CreateObject('Chilkat.Rest')

* Connect using TLS.

* Provide the authentication credentials (i.e. the access token)

* To delete a file, we must use the fileId.
* This must've been obtained by listing or searching for the file
* to get the metadata.
* Assume we already did that an have the fileId
