If i'm trying to set up my own install program that will copy all the files that i need to run a program off of a cd, how do i go about making that program copy each directory from a specific path, and also copy everything inside of that?
thanks

reboot

SHFileOperation is one way. The other way would be to write code to loop through the directories manually and copy each file.

you could use the DOS command xcopy then do:

xcopy CD:\DIR\*.* HDD:\DIR\

reboot

Seems pretty silly to me to use a high level language like VB as a batch file interpreter.
