Hi

Here is a hint


Imports System.IO


    Function MoveFile(ByVal sOldLocation As String, ByVal sNewLocation As String) As Boolean

        On Error GoTo Err_Handler

        Dim oFile As New FileInfo(sOldLocation)

        oFile.CopyTo(sNewLocation, True)

        Return True
Err_Handler:
        ' No need to Report Errors at this stage
        If Err.Number <> 0 Then
            Err.Clear()
            Exit Function
        End If
    End Function

Cheers
Shasur

Heuh? On error go to???? That's very old skool style. What about Try Catch?

Secondly, what's wrong with using the static Copy file? http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/libr...file.copy.aspx

File.Copy (oldLocation, newLocation)

And lastly, I'd be pretty confused by a method called MoveFile that would actually copy the file. So, all in all, I would use the following instead:

Dim oldLocation As String = "C:\SomePath\OldFile.txt"
Dim newLocation As String = "C:\SomePath\NewFile.txt"

Try
File.Copy(oldLocation, newLocation)
Catch e As Exception
' Do what you need to do here to deal with the error
End Try

Nothing personal, but I wouldn't qualify the sample code given as a best practice in .NET development.

Cheers,

Imar

Agreeing with you Imar!

File.Copy is the better one. The snippet I have posted was a trimmed down version of my requirement, which needs some logging (I have deleted those code in the forum posy for better brevity)
