.net - Copy Local Directory Contents To Another Directory
Oct 31, 2011I have a straight-forward task I'm attempting to accomplish. I have the mechanics down, and need to hammer out the details but I'm stumbling across one small point. :)
This script is supposed to take the files in the local C:Temp directory, and copy them to a selected user's shared directory on the file server.
Protected Sub btnCopy_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles btnCopy.Click
My.Computer.FileSystem.CopyDirectory("C:Temp", "\MAVERICKVOL1Users" & ddlName.SelectedValue & "DESKTOPRECORDINGS", True)
End Sub
This script does indeed work (and I'm aware I need to create exception handling) but it only copies what contents are on the server's directory of C:Temp rather than the local source directory.
I'm using VB.NET/ASP.NET to achieve this.
How am I able to direct my function to use the local user's directory rather than the remote server?

Current Directory For DLL
Jul 24, 2009I have an ACCESS database containing VBA code residing on a USB drive in a directory called 'collect'. When the application runs the code uses a DLL that is in the same directory as the application. The code in the DLL is VB.NET.
The DLL is declared :
Private Declare Function Collect Lib "x:collectwcolv332.dll" (ByRef Str As Any)
This works fine but it only works when the USB drive is mapped to x:
The follwoing which I expected to work does not
Private Declare Function Collect Lib "wcolv332.dll" (ByRef Str As Any)
and neither does
Private Declare Function Collect Lib "collectwcolv332.dll" (ByRef Str As Any)
