Folders

How do I copy the contents of an entire folder to a new folder with a differnet name?
Can this be done?

use a for-loop that copies all the files from a folder to a specified other folther.

In vb6 a function existed that uses the file system object, copyfolder or foldercopy or somthing like that. Don't know about that in vb.net

Something like this maybe....

Code:

---

Dim folder1 As New DirectoryInfo("C:\Test")
Dim folder2 As New DirectoryInfo("C:\Test2")
folder2.Create()
Dim file As FileInfo
For Each file In folder1.GetFiles
    file.CopyTo(folder2.FullName & "\" & file.Name)
Next

---

This works just fine except it tries to copy the file multiple times and thus produces an error message saying the file already exists in this folder!


Any suggestions?

Well I think I figured it out! Im using a Timer to create an instance to perform this operation and thats what screwing it up!
