[Question]File.Move?

[MugNuf]

Is there a way to use file.move to make something like this:

[PHP]File.Move(TextBox1.Text & "\HyperCam2\*name of file*"[/PHP]

But... File.Move, gives errors, and i don't really know how it works. Could someone tell me.. or give me a link to a example?

Imports System.IO
Public Class Form1

Public Sub Main

        Dim fm As File

        fm.Move("From File Location/File.Extension", "To File Location\file.extension")


    End Sub
End Class

Or

 Declare Auto Function MoveFile Lib "KERNEL32.dll" Alias "MoveFile" (ByVal src As String, ByVal
dst As String) As Boolean

Public Class Form1

Public sub main
 MoveFile("from file location/file.extension", "to file location/file.extension")

end sub

end class

I think you get the idea

Meh it really matters how much you're using the File.Move command.

If you're using it a lot, then use the second code, changing the alias to something shorter.

[Bombsaway707]

System.IO.File.Copy(Starting File Location, Location to move file to)

This is the easy way to do it if you want to preserve the original file

I use this:

My.Computer.FileSystem.MoveFile("C:\FILE.txt", _
    "C:\File1.txt")
