Directory.GetFiles | Get only the specific file-CodePudding

I want to copy a specific file only but it copies all files in the directory. Is there any way to achieve it?

here is my code:

    Dim dir As DirectoryInfo = New DirectoryInfo("\\SERVER-PC\BrokerDatabase\BrokerDatabase\Attachments")

    For Each fi As FileInfo In dir.GetFiles()
        fi.CopyTo("D:\"   fi.Name)
    Next

CodePudding user response：

It copies all files in the directory because you're looping the .CopyTo without any condition. If the filename of the file you are looking for is static, add a condition with it so it won't copy all the files.

 Dim dir As DirectoryInfo = New DirectoryInfo("\\SERVER-PC\BrokerDatabase\BrokerDatabase\Attachments")

    For Each fi As FileInfo In dir.GetFiles()
        If fi.Name = "FileToBeCopied.txt" Then
            fi.CopyTo("D:\"   fi.Name)
        End If

    Next
