[RESOLVED] Mobile Phone storage...

im developing a mobile application using a XML as my database.. my application resides in "\program files\myapp\" folder together with the sample.XML file..

i want to update "\program files\myapp\sample.xml" when my application start.

example.. in my SD memory card i have "Update\sample.xml".. how can i overwrite "\program files\myapp\sample.xml" with the newer xml found in my memory card "Update\sample.xml"..

im using vb.net 2008.. thanks..

Hey,

This would be a simple file operation.

Use the File Class:

First of all delete the old xml file and copy in the new one.

Hi,
is the one on the SD card a direct replacement - if so just use

Imports System.IO

Try
file.delete ("\program files\myapp\sample.bak")
file.move("\program files\myapp\sample.xml","\program files\myapp\sample.bak")
file.move("\Storage Card\Update\sample.xml","\program files\myapp\sample.xml")
Catch
End Try

That what you are looking for or...???
