Hi All,
I noticed if file path has a white space, for example "C:\my document
\test.txt", the function File.Exists(fil ePath) always return false in
release mode. How could I make this function work for the file which
is located in a direcotry with a white space?
Thanks!

Try this:
Dim strPath As String =
Environment.Get FolderPath(Envi ronment.Special Folder.Personal ).ToString
Dim strFile As String = IO.Path.Combine (strPath, "Test.txt")
MessageBox.Show (IO.File.Exists (strFile).ToStr ing)

I have lots of directories with that case and have never seen what you
describe. Ensure that the folder name is correct. What dot.net version are
you targeting?

I am using .net frame work 1.0 with VS.net 2003. The file path is
defined by the command line. It doesn't matter it is a special folder
or not. if only the directory name contains a white space, like "C:\my
file\test.txt", "C:\test file\test.txt", the function
File.Exists(fil ePath) always return false, even the file exists in
that direcotry.

Do you have quotes around the path on the command line?

Yes, I put quotes around the path, if the filePath = "C:\my_file
\test.txt", function File.exists(fil ePath) returns true; if I change
the filePath = "C:\my file\test.txt", and file exists,
File.Exists(fil ePath) returns false.

File.Exists(fil ePath) returns false.
As others have said here, I have never had this problem and I use
File.Exists on paths with embedded spaces all the time. There is still
something you are not telling us about your scenario.
Please make sure that you don't have the quotes in the string you are
sending. I would advise to put up a msgbox just prior to the file.exists
call. I have never seen this fail.

Thanks for the advice. You are right, if I delete the quotes around
the file path on the command line, it works! but I still have the
problem in the following case. If I drag the file from the window
explorer and drop it to the program exe icon on the desktop, I still
got "File not Found", the reason is the file path was added quotes
automaticlly. How to make drag and drop the file work with white space
in the file path? I am using Microsoft.Visua lBasic.Command( ) to
capture the file path.
Either use the short path name or surround the filename with quotes as the
previous user suggested
