I am writing a mini folder compare program to compare files in 2 folders .
I have sort of completed writing the application just that i dont know how to code for one particular part which is getting and comparing files in subfolder ( which mean my application doesnt goes into sub folder to get files name only the parent folder )
Imagine i have Folder A : with 3 files and a sub folder with 3 files
Folder B : 3 same files and a sub folder with 3 files
With the below code it only get the 3 files at the parent folder , How can i code to get the files in sub folders too ?

I am using vb.net with visual studio 2008. I have the need to have a user select a directory on a network drive to bring up a folder with a very extensive list of files. The file names within this directory are what I'm concerned with and I will need to write all these file names to a textfile in order to do a comparison with an existing text file. The user must be able to select this folder themselvesAt this point I am trying to use the openfiledialog box to open the folder however it is requiring that I select a specific file which is not my need. I need the whole folder.
I currently have a filter that is allowing all files. fdlg.Filter = "All files (*.*)|*.*|All (*.*) |*.*
Let me say that I have 'f' as a file/folder path. Dim f As String = C:UsersTom BluewaterMusic Dim d As String = Path.GetDirectoryName(f)
Is it possible to locate f within its parent directory (d) as shown in the picture below? I know that you can open its parent directory like the following. Process.Start("explorer.exe", Path.GetDirectoryName(f))
And that's not exactly what I want. In this case, the Music folder won't be selected. I could search this place for a clue. But there was no hit. It seems that the search function doesn't always work here.
I am trying to select a folder from an initial directory and store the initial directory with the selected directory in Folder1Dir. Also not sure how to dimension OpenFileDialog1.
I have a file search that I want the user to select the folder they are searching the file in. At the moment I have If Check.Text = "Correct" Then If My.Computer.FileSystem.FileExists("C:Systemsfile.txt") Then 1CheckBox.Checked() = True Else 1CheckBox.Checked = False End If
However this check will be used for various files and its not usable if the FileExists directory stays the same ie searching the same folder and file for different records. I have a FolderBrowseDialog that I want the user to select the folder first in where to search and then within this chosen folder the static file will be checked. I have this as my folderbrowsedialog:
Dim Browser As New FolderBrowserDialog Browser.Description = "Please select ." Browser.ShowNewFolderButton = False Browser.RootFolder = "c:" Browser.SelectedPath = "c:windows" If Browser.ShowDialog = Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK Then Me.text.Text = Browser.SelectedPath End If
I tried adding in this code to the actual file check to encoporated the dynamic folder search but its bringing up errors and not working, I have this: Dim path As String = "Browser" Dim f As ReadOnlyCollection(Of String) = My.Computer.FileSystem.GetFiles("test.xlsx") If My.Computer.FileSystem.FileExists("test.xlsx") Then Box.Checked() = True
I'm trying to select the files and folders inside a folder to zip up, but what it seems to be doing is selecting all the folders up to the folder i've selected and the files in the final folder but not the folders in there and zipping them up. So for example in tbFolder I have the string: "C:Users ombDesktopDeOldMota7" I want to select this folder and zip up the entire contents of this folder, images and all. But whats happening is the following:
Its creating the folder structure up to the folder i want zipped and adding just the files in side this and not the folders. I'm guessing I need to tweak the line:
System.IO.Directory.GetFiles(DirectoryToZip)
Here is the entire code:
Private Sub btnCreate_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnCreate.Click Dim ZipFile As String = "C:Releases" & drpService.Text & "-" &

So I've been using some code to generate directories and such in a custom treeview, but am looking to expand upon this idea. While it's not using recursive functions, and only calls functions when expanding levels, I'm not quite sure how to put some of these together.find a way to just search through all folders on the PC. If the folder contains audio files, that folder is than added to an array (searching a folder for audio files and adding that folder to an array is done). It's just recursivly searching all folders on the PC.Here is the code I've been using for the treeview (I'm not sure if it can be adapted):
Public Function ListAllDrives() As String() Dim arDrives() As String arDrives = Directory.GetLogicalDrives()[code].....

I have a program that creates a root folder and sub-folder in the users C-drive.I unfortunatley did not think this through propaly. Senario = if a user does not have access to the C-drive and just has an account to thier 'My Documents' then they cannot use this program.How i achieve the C-drive root-folder, sub-folder, and eventually text file creation is as follows;
If My.Computer.FileSystem.DirectoryExists("C:AMSFTAMSFT_RunnersDetails" + Label81.Text) Then[code]...
I do not what to change the format of this code too much as it is embedded heavily in my code, what i want to do is instead of checking and creating these folders and text files in the C-drive, i would like to change the location to a potentially unrestricted area, eg; 'my Documents'. how to alter this code to achieve this?
In the above form the user will first enter a folder name and click the create folder button,then the folder will be created in the applications bin folder.I did the code for this:
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click If ComboBox1.Text = "" Then
What I'm trying to achieve is for a file to be copied from a templates folder to a project folder. The project folder path is constructed using the selected item in a combo box and a list box. [Code]
Ok so i have a program that pulls up all the video files in a video folder. I need a code that will move one of the files in the listbox to a recycle bin i made. But i dont want to replace any of the files in the recycle bin i just want a code to move one file out of one folder and into another. So if there is a code for this then great.
