Help learning vb.net 2003

[lookingconfused]

I have a program that will browse out to get a file and then save the file somewhere else. How do I use SaveFileDialog1 and FolderBrowserDialog1?
I really need a book that is for beginners, got any ideas?

To help you get started:

  Public Sub BrowseForFolder()
    Dim dlgFolderBrowser As New FolderBrowserDialog
    Dim dlgRetval As DialogResult

    dlgFolderBrowser.RootFolder = Environment.SpecialFolder.Personal
    dlgFolderBrowser.ShowNewFolderButton = True
    dlgFolderBrowser.Description = "Please select the folder to store the file in."
    dlgRetval = dlgFolderBrowser.ShowDialog()

    If dlgRetval = DialogResult.Abort Or dlgRetval = DialogResult.Cancel Then
      Exit Sub
    Else
      'Your code to save the file
      'The selected folder is stored in dlgFolderBrowser.SelectedPath property
    End If
  End Sub

This will open the FolderBrowser Dialog and let the user select a folder. You have to write code to copy the file to that folder yourself.

The difference between the SaveAs Dialog and the FolderBrowser Dialog is that you can specify a different filename in the SaveAs dialog, whereas you can only select a target folder in the FolderBrowser dialog. You cannot use a SaveAs dialog to actually save a file, it only specifies where to store it and what filename to use.
