VS 2005 - Delete Certain File Type From Multiple Directories Based On Days Old
May 18, 2009I am new to VB but I do have VS2005 and I was looking at some code examples here on deleting files by days old and I need to do something similar, I would like to start a say C:myData**.xit and search through all sub folders under myData and move all the .xit files based on days old into a temp folder. Then I could verify them before I delete them manually to be safe. So how do I loop through all sub folders? and can I just modify this code to do that? Here is the code I was thinking about starting with [URL].
Dim files As System.Collections.ObjectModel.ReadOnlyCollection(Of String)
Dim singlefile As String
Dim CreatedOn As Date

VS 2010 : Listing Directories Inside Directories?

The above code reads all the files & directories in a selected path. It ignores any hidden folders, like it suppose to. Except it doesn't ignore folders inside of the hidden folders that it finds & I need it to.I can't quite wrap my head around how to make it ignore all folders & files inside of a hidden folder that it find.

Dec 16, 2009what is probably a very stupid and basic question, I'm new to Visual Basic I currently coding a program which deletes specific files that are part of a game. It finds and deletes all the files in the "program files" directorys but there are also certain files in My Documents that must be deleted.
The problem is the filepath to My Documents includes a username which is unique to different users, meaning on any other pc the program will not work.
The path on my computer is: C:UsersShaneDocumentsElectronic Arts
How can I get the program to find this folder on other computers? I'm totally lost.

How To List Directories On FTP
Jun 25, 2009I'm trying to make a simple program to list a directory and sub directories on an ftp. I haven't found anything simple to do this other than a dll made for ftp commands. There are two problems with that dll, the first is I can't get recursing through directories to work right and it has a trial period. So I'm wondering if there is a simple pure VB way to simply list directories on an ftp. The dll I've played with is ChilkatDotNet2.dll.
View 4 RepliesHow To Manage Directories
May 29, 2012I am now convinced there is no such thing using VB 2010 Express. I have read, re-read, studied, copied and pasted code to no end and all I get are error messages galore. It appears there is a big gap between what's on line as far as tutorials and the code that VB 2010 Express will accept. I hate to sound so lost but at the moment I am. I used to program in BASIC and QBASIC. I was a master at opening up ascii text files, reading them in sequential order, sorting, manipulating, then re-writing them. It was all so easy, like this: [code] That's all I want to learn how to do for the moment. But every tutorial or article I find goes off in to wild tangents about How to Manage Directories or it reads the entire text file into one giant object. Or worse, there's some code which looks promising but it won't run under VB 2010 Express or it might run but the author leaves out important parts of the code that have to be declared ahead of the subroutine....you all know what I mean. It can't be this difficult to just read a text file one line at a time, therefore it shouldn't be so difficult to find an accurate and up to date article on this.This is for really rough programming. I don't need an interface of any kind. The user, will not even need to know that anything is happening. I simply want to read text files, manipulate what's in them and then re-write the edited text.

However, it returns all directories even system hidden ones.It seems that this just follows what I set in Windows for file and folder browsing, since I set the Windows to show all files, I think it's also showing all folders to me, I am not sure however.
