[2005] Copy Files Help Needed!

[knxrb]

I need to copy files from "F:\" to "E:\" but I don't want to copy all the files just the ones that have been changed or updated since I logged on to the computer.

Does anyone have a way to do this please?

Thanks in advance.

Drop a FileSystemWatcher to your form and try this.

Public Class Form1
Private changedFiles As New List(Of String)

Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
        FileSystemWatcher1.Path = "F:\"
        'I assume that you want to include the subdirectories. If not, remove the line underneath.
        FileSystemWatcher1.IncludeSubdirectories = True
    End Sub
 
    Private Sub FileSystemWatcher1_Changed(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.IO.FileSystemEventArgs) Handles FileSystemWatcher1.Changed
        If e.ChangeType = IO.WatcherChangeTypes.Changed Then
            Dim filePath As String = e.FullPath
            If IO.File.Exists(filePath) AndAlso Not changedFiles.Contains(filePath) Then 'This will filter out the directories and prevent duplicates from being added.
                changedFiles.Add(e.FullPath)
            End If
        End If
    End Sub
End Class

It'll find all the files in F: that has had changes made to them. Now just copy the files to E:, all the filepaths are in the changedFiles list.
