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?

Title says it all. How can you obtain a list of files (as a stringcollection or some other storage method) which contains the full path on the user's computer to the files?
View 1 RepliesI need to do a daily process that has to copy (download), all the files from a iSeries folder. At the moment, if i know the filename i'm using the following code with the cwbx.dll
Dim dt As New cwbx.DatabaseTransfer
dt.UserID = "user"
dt.Password = "password"
dt.Download("iSeriesName", "dir/filename", "outputfile")
But how can i list all the files that exist in that dir, so that i can copy/download them all ?
I have an 'In' folder that users drop all different types of files into (.doc, .xls, .rtf, .pdf etc.).Each file that gets dropped into the 'In' folder should have a matching .pdf file (i.e. abc123.doc and abc123.pdf)I have a program which looks into this 'In' directory at regular intervals and moves filename.* to another directory. The folder the files get moved to depends on the first 2 characters of the filename (12-abc.doc might get copied to folder '12' etc).All the files placed in the 'In' folder should have both a native file and a matching .pdf i.e. (abc123.doc and abc123.pdf)In some cases the native file is missing. In some cases the .pdf is missing.There are 2 things that I want to do.
1.) I want to prevent files being moved from the 'In' folder if a .pdf does not exist (I think I can deal with this one ok).
I think perhaps a For Next Loop Array for filenames minus the file extension and if it already exists in the array then copy them (but what if someone has got a .doc and a .xls but no .pdf?!?!? I'm sure somebody could tell me a simple way of achieving this.
2.) This is the part I am struggling with. I need to look in existing folders that files have already been copied to and list:
a.) Native file without matching .pdf
b.) .pdf without matching native file
c.) .pdf with matching native file
I am using the following code to allow the user to select a directory and then list the appropriate files within that directory in a combobox. What I would like to do is sort that combobox into a descending order so the most resent files are listed first as the filename contains a date yymmdd.

If FolderBrowserDialog1.ShowDialog() = DialogResult.OK Then
TextBox1.Text = FolderBrowserDialog1.SelectedPath
End If
Dim BackupFolder As String = TextBox1.Text

Now I need somekind of function that would search in a directory ( The user gives the dir. in a textbox ), and its important that it would also search in all sub folders and see if there is a match to any of the names in the .txt file. And it shall not care about in what format the file is. It can be in .exe , .txt or any format.

This code lists all the files in a directory but not the folders, I want it to do the complete opposite.
I'd like my application to retrieve a list of directories, sub-directories, and files from a URL (URL has no index page). Is that possible? I've been searching, but all I can seem to find is how to list directories and such on a system drive.

When I use this code, I get an error stating: "'MainModule' is not a member of 'System.IO.FileInfo'." If I remove the very first line of the sub that specifies the directory, that error obviously goes away.
So, is there another method of extracting the icon? Or must I declare the directory in another way?
