File / Folder Name - Illegal Character In Path

Feb 25, 2009

I have a problem with the following snippet: (working on Visual Studio 2008, Net-Framwork 3.5, all Service-packs) Vb.Net.

My.Computer.FileSystem.RenameFile(cc + TmpName + cc, cc + OnlyName + cc)
Cc equals to Chr(34)
or also
My.Computer.FileSystem.RenameFile(TmpName,OnlyName )

The Problem occurs if in one of the Strings the Character ";" is embedded. Don't ask me why this Char is in the Filename - it is. An "Illegal Character in Path" exception occurs.
