Help with WHILE loop

I have a .7z file that always has problems when I try to copy the file via code. This happens with every .7z file that I have tested with. Therefore, I have written the following code to keep repeating a file copy function until the filesize of the destination file matches the size of the source file. However, I think this is getting caught in an endless loop. FYI, file MYFILE.7z already exists on both the source and the destination. The code below is a routine that is executed after the file is in both places to verify that the file actually copies successfully to the destination.

Code:

---

Public Sub Load_BackupFile()

        Dim Device As String
        Dim Source7z As Long
        Dim Dest7z As Long

        Device = Trim(frmmain.cmbDriveSelect.Text)

        'get the file size of the .7z file in the build directory & on the Device
        source7z = GetFileSize("C:\MYFILE.7z")
        Dest7z = GetFileSize(frmmain.cmbDriveSelect.Text & "MYFILE.7z")

        While Dest7z <> Source7z

            System.IO.File.Copy("C:\MYFILE.7z", Device & "MYFILE.7z", True)

        End While
End Sub

---

And here is the declared function I am using for GetFileSize:

Code:

---

Public Function GetFileSize(ByVal MyFilePath As String) As Long
        Dim MyFile As New FileInfo(MyFilePath)
        Dim FileSize As Long = MyFile.Length
        Return FileSize
    End Function

---

Thanks for any help with this one.

Have you checked to see that when you manually copy a .7z file it keeps the exact same size?

Yes, the manual copy works fine. Issue is very strange.

Check to make sure that the end of your path contains a backslash. That is most likely your problem.

Code:

---


StrPath = frmmain.cmbDriveSelect.Text
If right(StrPath,1) <> "\" Then
    Strpath &= "\"
End If

---

Use this to combine parts of a path
IO.Path.Combine(drctry, filenm)

and try this for your copy
My.Computer.FileSystem.CopyFile(src, dst, overwrite:=True, showUI:=True, onUserCancel:=True)
