Copying Multiple files into One file...

[VisualGuy]

It is hard for me to imagine that there isn't a copy command in VB.NET that will allow me to copy multiple files into one file...as was the case with DOS.

In DOS it's FILE1.TXT + FILE2.TXT + FILE3.TXT FILEALL.TXT

FILEALL.TXT would contain Files 1,2 & 3. I'm sure I could just create and execute a batch file to do this, but then VB.NET won't wait until I'm finished executing the command before going to the next line of code.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

You can make Vb wait for the batch file to finish.

Dim p As New Process

p.StartInfo.FileName = "FileJoin.bat"
p.Start()
p.WaitForExit() 'this will wait indefinitely for the process to exit
