I am trying to copy an entire folder and all of its contents that is in the same location as my program that is running to a user selected location. I started off by using a SaveFileDialog, but now I am working with a FolderBrowserDialog. Here is some code:
Private Sub BackupButton_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles BackupButton.Click Dim sourcePath As String
[Code]....
But when I run the program, it works, but it does not copy the entire folder in the application startup location.. how I can copy that folder that is in the same location as my program to a user selected location?
I was wondering if anyone new of a C# to VB.NET convertor that can convert an entire project at once. I found the vbconversions VB.NET to C# convertor [URL].. but they do not have a program that goes the other way (which is what I need).

I would like to know if there is any way that I can rename an entire project / solution.I created a project called say WindowsApp1, and then realized that I do not want that name, I'd like to rename it to something else.So I'd like to rename all references to WindowsApp1 throughout the project to another name.
I want to rework and rename an existing application and utilize everything I've already done -- but it looks like it isn't going to be that simple?One post suggested renaming the folder, plus the project and another subfolder but when I opened that folder there were another 7 or 8 files that also needed changing.I DON'T want to do anything that will create a conflict and if I'm going to change to newname from oldname, I don't want to see "oldname" popping up anywhere..Is there a safe way to rename and reuse an exisitng project? Without anything being left out ?

This has to be really simple and I am completely missing the boat. I have a VB2008 express windows forms project with several forms and an access database that I work on here at work. I want to copy it to a thumb drive and take it home and work on it there, then bring it back, etc.

I am developing a fairly complex vb.net program with numerous forms, and custom classes, modules, etc. I want to start reorganizing the various folders for components of the program and have a few stupid questions.For one, I find that I cannot take a working executable and move it to a different folder on the same machine and have it work. My program drives numerous slave applications and I would like to group just the executables in a common folder. Do I need to carry additional files along with them to make them 'portable' on my own machine? I haven't discovered how to copy or move an existing project to a new folder. Things seem to blow up because of internal project references etc. Is there some way of copying or duplicating a working project without problems resulting?
Copy Windows Form from projact A to project B This looks a trivial task, but using VB 2008 Express edition:
1 - If I click Solution - Add - Existing And hand pick the 3 form files (the .vb, the .resx and the .designer.vb) then I can see those 3 files as textfiles, not as a "real" VB form!
2 - I want to duplicate Form1 to create Form2 that is slightly different.
