Recursively Search Folder And Place That List Into A ListBox
Mar 30, 2011
I am trying to make a program where I browse for a folder and that Browse dialog displays user selection into a Text Box that part I have completed, when that user selects the folder it will recursively search all folders and subfolders in the directory the user has chosen and display that list in a ListBox here is the code I have so far. Also to note I have found a function for recursively search a folder but I have no idea how to implement it to display in the ListBox from the User selected directory.
This code is the code that lets the user select the folder and display it in the textbox
Private Sub SourceButton_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles SourceButton.Click
With SourceBrowse
[Code].....
On a side note I also want the list to display all the files in the folder as well.

I've started a simple project to copy a folder from one place to another, so far I have; one folderbrowserdialog to select the source folder, and another folderbrwoserdialog to select the destination folder, I have no idea on the code to copy from one variable location to another.
"Private Sub BrowseFoldersButton_Click2(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles BrowseSourceButton.Click Dim theFolderBrowser As New FolderBrowserDialog theFolderBrowser.Description = "Please Select The Folder Which You Would Like Backed Up." theFolderBrowser.ShowNewFolderButton = True [Code] .....

I'm creating a new (or more) tab(s) with a multi-line textbox (filled) at runtime and some text is added. Each time I change/select a (new) tab it needs to search for a string and if found...blablabla.How do I get the control to search in?
I can't find how to search for a folder (directory) that contains a string and copy all the folders (directory) that contain that string to another directory. So you search for the name of the directory, not the files in the directory.For example: 'KTNPRK' in E: gives:E:KTNPRK1, E:AZNKTNPR76, etc...
