How to backup My Docs, Outlook in VB

[shadowlesshand]

Hi,
I have an appln in VB and Access. This will backup (copy a selected directory into a destination dir on the HDD) a selected folder or file. What would be the best method to backup My Documents folder, Favorites folder, Outlook Express (inbox, outbox draft etc). Can it be done by using the registry( and how) or directly copy the directory as before.
Thanks

There is a "Zip" style library that can be used from within VB that will perform your backup.

One that I know of is available at

Others may have other links or suggestions.

Cheers.
