Copy files that exist

[GlenW]

I want to write an app that copies files from one directory to another, but only copies files that already exist in the to directory, overwrite them.
Any ideas?

you want to copy files to another directory, but only if they already exist in that ' other ' directory ? so basically you want to write over them?
you can use the System.IO.File.Exists function for this.

Dim files As String() = IO.Directory.GetFiles("C:\Documents and Settings\den\My Documents\My Pictures")
        For Each s As String In files
            Dim fileinf As New IO.FileInfo(s)
            Dim otherpath As String = "C:\" & fileinf.Name
            If IO.File.Exists(otherpath) Then
                IO.File.Copy(s, otherpath, True)
            End If
        Next

in C#

string[] files = System.IO.Directory.GetFiles(@"C:\Documents and Settings\den\My Documents\My Pictures");
      foreach(string s in files)
      {
            System.IO.FileInfo fileinf = new System.IO.FileInfo(s);
            string otherpath = @"C:\" + fileinf.Name;
            if ( IO.File.Exists(otherpath) )
            {
                System.IO.File.Copy(s, otherpath, true);
            }
