I am using this to loop through a directory and grab the last modified date for all of the files. How I do find the last or most recent modified date?
Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal er As EventArgs)
Dim info As DirectoryInfo = New DirectoryInfo("C:InetpubwwwrootG269_FocusUploads")
Dim files As FileInfo()
files = info.GetFiles("*.pdf")

i have a problem in my project to find the Last Modified date of a site..
is any code to find that in asp.net
I have what I think should be a simple solution. All I want to do is see what the name of the most recently modified folder was in my c: path.
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to load the most recent file from a directory, but my following code doesn't work. Am i getting something obvious terribly wrong?!
Dim myFile = Directory.GetFiles("C:UsersJoeDesktopXML Logs").OrderByDescending(Function(f) f.LastWriteTime).First()
I get two error messages:
Data type(s) of the type parameter(s) in extension method 'Public Function OrderByDescending(Of TKey)(keySelector As System.Func(Of String, TKey)) As System.Linq.IOrderedEnumerable(Of String)' defined in 'System.Linq.Enumerable' cannot be inferred from these arguments. Specifying the data type(s) explicitly might correct this error.
And:
'LastWriteTime' is not a member of 'String'.
I have a number of files in a folder, I need to get the last modified date. So I used FDate = IO.File.GetLastWriteTime(FName) Works fine with some files, but on others, I get a date of 1/1/1601. But when I check the files in Windows Explorer, all the dates look normal (recent). So, I'm gessing there are multiple files dates stored in the file system, and the ones dotnet is seeing are not the ones windows is seeing. How can I get exactly the date which appears as "date modified" in a file explorer window? I tried some vb6 api stuff but that doesn't seem to work in dotnet.
View 2 Replieshow I can display the date a file was last modified on a web form. I'm working in C#. I was able to do this in classic ASP with the following code, which I had in an include file:
dim bs, b

Const ForReading = 1

Set folder = objFSO.GetFolder("C:\folder\")

I am trying to pull the modified date of one file in a folder through a SSIS script. I tried doing this through the system.IO namespace as it contains the GetFileName method. This isn't working & I was wondering if there was a name space that contained the modified date method for a file if I specified the path to the filename. I am looking to return the modified date variable in whichever way this may be possible.

View 2 RepliesI'm using VB.net 2003 Standard Edition, and I'm trying to retrieve the file modified date. I've created a System.IO.FileInfo object, and have collected info from the three methods: CreationTime, LastAccessTime, and LastWriteTime, but they aren't giving me the same data as XP Windows Explorer is.In Explorer, there is a Date Modified field (currently reading 2008 on the file in question), but using the FileInfo methods they return 2007, 2009, 2009.Is there another IO object I can use to get this 'modified' date?

I created a background thread that constantly scans a specified folder for any .xls files that are created or modified. These files come from a vba macro in outlook that will automatically save the attachments of the mails in the this folder. This will update the modified date/time, or at least it seems to.
For Each fi In aryFi
fidate = System.IO.File.GetLastWriteTime(path & fi.ToString)
fidate1 = System.IO.File.GetCreationTime(path & fi.ToString)
[code]....
Everytime I check to the code, the fidate and fidate1 variables are indeed the correct dates/times of the file it's currently checking. It almost never gets inside the elseif block at runtime though.

View 2 RepliesI have a page which lists all the files in a particular folder (all PDFs), using a data-table and gridview. I'm currently sorting this table by the filename (by using a dataview), which isn't that helpful, and I want the gridview of files sorted by the file created or file modified date (as recorded in Windows). If that's not possible, a second option would be to extract the date from the file name string (no problem doing that), and sort the dataview/datatable or gridview based on that.

I have read about Network.Downloadfile and I think I understand it! I want to know if there is an easy way to test a files date modified before downloading it. I have a lot of files in the folder. I really want to "sync" the folder. I don't want to copy every file every time I want to only download the file if I don't have the file in the destination location or if I have an Old copy.
View 4 RepliesSo there's this accounting package at my client that spits out text-based reports with invalid dates, like February 31st or September 31st.The reports are formatted with spaces and mono-spaced fonts. The data that gets parsed out are fed into a more formal local SSRS report, and that's about all you need to know.
What I am interested in fixing is the situation where a date is invalid and can't be converted into a DateTime struct. The date format from the report is "MMM-dd-yy" (e.g. "Feb-30-10"). The date strings need to be fixed before being shown in the formal report. I've seen this done two ways in my time as a developer, and I want to come up with a cleverer way of doing it (if there isn't a built-in way I don't know about).The first bad method (I can't believe I'm even showing you!):
Dim month As Integer = <Parse out the month from the bad date string>
Dim day As Integer = <Parse out the day from the bad date string>
Dim year As Integer = <Parse out the year from the bad date string>
Dim validDate As DateTime
