Hello friends i've got and another problem how to move same exe file from one location to anoter and also what are the uses of commondialoger.
Two basic ways of moving a file:
1) Use VB's Name method, i.e., Name oldpath/file As newpath/file
2) Copy file & then delete source: VB's FileCopy & Kill methods.
Here's a quickie tutorial on the common dialog
If you run into problems, be sure to be far more specific. When you find some time, review the "HitchHiker's Guide" link in my signature below. It will enable you to help us better to help you.
@Bishaw: I have always preferred to use the SHFileOperation API to copy/move/delete files. See these links if you are interested...

If you're asking about the CommonDialog control then, it is a control that can be used to display Open, Save, Color, Font, Printer dialog boxes to the user. For example, if you want your user to select a color, then you can display the Color dialog box (using CommonDialog control) and get a color that the user may picks from it. In the same way, you can display an Open dialog box, so that user can select a file of their choice, etc.Quote:
