I have a SQL Server table with a list of files (path + filename), and a folder with multiple layers and files in each layer. I'm looking for a way to reconcile the two without having to process the list twice. Currently, I'm doing this:
For Each f as FileInfo In FileListFromDatabase
If f.Exists is False, mark it as deleted in the database
Next
[Code]....
Is there a better way to do this? I'd like to avoid converting all the matching files (of which most will be) to FileInfo objects twice. Since I'm a T-SQL developer first, I'm picturing something like an OUTER JOIN of the two lists where they don't match. Something LINQ-ish?

how to use the .settings files and was wondering several items.(for this example let's call the settings file SettingsFile.settings)
1) After a call like
settingsfile.default.highscore = 100
settingsfile.default.save()
When you graphically set up the settings file (in the settings grid) in the solution explorer you can give initial values... is there a way to get those values back after the above call?
2) If you send a software update and the user installs it, will the settings file values persist or reset?
3) Is there a way to iterate through every setting in your .settings file? like a:
for each X in settingsfile
so here is my scenario. I have two input files... both are plain text files. File1 has customer name, customer address and invoice number. File2 has customer name, customer address, invoice number AND a keyline. File1 will only contain some of the records in File2, and it will change daily. I need to be able to compare File1 against File2 and output one file (preferably an Excel spreadsheet) with the info from File1 and the keyline from File2, that matches the duplicated info. I know the basics to get it to work, but I'm not sure what would be the easiest way of doing this... File2 can have up to 100,000 records per day. I'd only need to run it once a day though.
