    Re: File Size..

    Use FileInfo property...
    VB.Net Code:
    1. 'in method (let say on button click or similar)
    2. Dim aFile As New IO.FileInfo
    3. aFile = My.Computer.FileSystem.GetFileInfo("test.txt") 'you will probably browse this file name and not like this sample, fixed it in code here...
    4. Dim FileSize As Long = aFile.Length
    5. MsgBox(FileSize)
