VS 2008 Getting All Files On A Drive Regardless Of Folders?
Sep 27, 2009I'm using the following code to get all of the files from a DVD drive and load them into a bindinglist and then a datagridview:
mAddBL.Clear()
'
Try
Dim dir As New IO.DirectoryInfo(Form1.m_DVDdrive & ":")
[Code]....
This shows all files and folder names on the disc. If I want it to show all files, regardless of the folder they're in, is there a built-in method to do that or do I need to take an entry, identify it as a directory and then use that as my source to read the files in it?

VS 2008 Search Every File On Specified Drive?
May 7, 2009i have done this a couple of years ago but i completely forget how i did it. I want a means of searching every file whether it be in sub folders, or sub folders of the sub folders and comparing the attributes of the file.
In other words, my program will search every file on the computer. For each file that it searches my program will attempt to io.file.readalltext etc.. the file. If the contents eqaul "....." then actions will hapen. If the file is greater then a certain size then actions will happen etc...
I want to see the attributes of each searched file, i will be using Dim FI as new FileInfo().
So how do i search each file in a directory? and all directories in the directory and so on?
