I am using VB in my web page. I am using
My.Computer.FileSystem.CopyDirectory(strListFolderPath, strCloseFolderPath)
to copy one directory and all subdirectories to another location. Is there
any other way than using DirectoryExists to make sure the copy succeeded
before I delete the source directory? I know that sometimes the file system
is slow to recognize an operation. Thanks.

Hi David,

I think you might try to compare directories, see example:

FileSystem.MoveDirectory Method
