On top of what Luc said, why are you even checking attributes?? Unless they determine eligibility of a file to be copied, you have no need to look at the file attributes. Your code snippet suggests that you're not using the attributes for anything at all, so I'd just remove the checks.

Hi Dave,
I was checking attributes because originally I was hoping to exclude the Recycle Bin and System Volume Information by skipping a system attribute, but found through testing that if I did an "if statement" with all the attributes it worked. Didn't make sense, but worked... Unfortunately from our intranet server, the copy was skipping those folders, so the logic was no longer sound.
You would think Microsoft would have a way of catching the recycle bin in the logic by looking for an attribute of some kind related to system files/directories?
Oh well, the logic worked by catching the name of the directories and skipping them that way.
Thanks for the feedback! Always appreciated!

For future reference, your code wasn't checking to see if any attributes were turned on. That IF statement you posted only returned True if one and only one attribute was turned on. Your check got lucky if it returned true.
You would normally check to see if a single bit flag is enabled like this:
If (di.Attributes And FileAttributes.System) = FileAttributes.System Then

Thanks for the clarification! It is evident now that I was misunderstanding the File.Attributes logic.

VB 6 is a dead system. If you are interested in developing using Visual Basic then get a copy of the express version[^].

Dead system? Feh. "It has worked for ten years, we don't need to upgrade! Now, I need this list of changes implemented by tomorrow...."

Visual Basic 6.0 was never free.
However, it would be prudent you look at working in .Net instead of VB6 now.

Thanks, I won't, I just don't think so.

Oh, but I have used it, in a previous century.
I did like it then, to some degree; I also am sure I won't like it today.

Your words are true, but what can you do when your employer requests you to do so? Directly or indirectly: e.g. programs must run under Windows 2000 (our sales team just found a potential customer here in Germany (!) whose computers are still running almost all on Windows 2000) - guess how much fun it is to discuss your incapability to support such dinosaurs! When rich Germany is so far behind the times, how can you then expect an Indian to use a more modern programming language...

Did you ask the place you got it from? They would be in a better position to answer whatever question you have about it.

That's specifically designed for VB6. It might work under VB.NET, but you'd be better off with an implementation that targets .NET.

I have no idea what it is that you are asking. Are you wanting to know how to design a user interface? http://www.ambysoft.com/essays/userInterfaceDesign.html[^]

No.I just looking if there are views of interface (designed from other)
I hope I'm clear.

Far from it I'm afraid. What do you mean by views of interface (designed from other)? I know what a view is and I know what an interface is, but I have no idea what a view of an interface means. I suspect your question may be coming from Google translate; perhaps you can find a colleague, who has a better command of English, to translate your requirements.
