How to validate a file was created *Resolved*

[jlegan]

My app generates 4 text files in the directory that the application was run from. Is there a way that after it creates the 4 files that it can go out and validate that indeed the files were created and return the status.

If you want to know a file exists in a directory you can check it in this way:

Dim myfile as New IO.FileInfo("The_Full_Path_of_File_here")
If myfile.Exists Then
   Messagebox.Show("File Exists")
Else
  Messagebox.Show("File Does noit Exist")
End If

File.Exists is a shared function so you can also do this...

If File.Exists("The_Full_Path_of_File_here") Then
    Messagebox.Show("File Exists")
Else
    Messagebox.Show("File Does noit Exist")
End If
