Hi,

how can i find out, whether a given string specifies a Path or a file...

System.IO.File.Exist(UnknownString) does not work for my
application. i exactly need to know if the strng is a path or a file...

But how the h*** can i find it out....


Thanks in advance....

Use the FileSystemInfo.Attributes property which is of type FileAttributes.
The FileAttributes enumeration has a flag FileAttributes.Directory which I
believe is what you are looking for.
