Dim f As New FileInfo("C:\Contact.bmp")

Debug.WriteLine(f.LastWriteTime.ToString)

Debug.WriteLine(f.LastAccessTime.ToString)

Debug.WriteLine(f.CreationTime.ToString)

Debug.WriteLine(f.Name)

Debug.WriteLine(f.Length)

Debug.WriteLine(f.Attributes.ReadOnly.ToString)

'etc

How do I get the bitmap associated with the file?

 

[Lou]

This class doesn't give me the file version???

Dim f As New FileInfo("C:\Contact.bmp")

Debug.WriteLine(f.LastWriteTime.ToString)

Debug.WriteLine(f.LastAccessTime.ToString)

Debug.WriteLine(f.CreationTime.ToString)

Debug.WriteLine(f.Name)

Debug.WriteLine(f.Length)

Debug.WriteLine(f.Attributes.ReadOnly.ToString)

'etc

No, the file version is not part of the file system. Search for
FileVersionInfo.

There is nothing in the help files for FileVersionInfo relating to this.

There must be a simple way to get the version of a file?

Hello,

How do I get the bitmap associated with the file?

Do you refer to the icon?

Hello,

There is nothing in the help files for FileVersionInfo relating to
this.

Are you sure you are using VB.NET?!
