Redirecting with .htaccess

I have some files at a website that I no longer offer (they have been obsoleted). I'd like to be able to redirect these files to the top page at my website. Ideally, I would like to use a rule that handles any file in a subfolder. For example:

I'd like to redirect anything under www.mydomain.com/myfolder/ to www.mydomain.com/index.html. What kind of rule do I use in my .htaccess file to do such a thing? I'm currently using the following rule:

Redirect /myfolder/ http://www.mydomain.com/

This has the affect of redirecting a page like www.mydomain.com/myfolder/mypage.html to www.mydomain.com/mypage.html (instead of the top page, like I would like).

Any help would be appreciated.
