set file attributes for mobile device

[Benjamin]

I am trying to make a file I created a hidden file. I think I need to use
the setfileattribute() but I cannot find it anywhere. I found this on msdn:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...attributes.asp
can anyone direct me in the right direction?

Thanks, It is exactly what I'm looking for. You couldn't have made my day
any better. It is working great!

I don't have experience with mobile devices, but assuming
that they are the same...

You can use the IO.FileInfo(filepath) class to change file attributes.
Then use FileInfo.Attributes = IO.FileAttributes.Hidden.

Private Sub Button1_Click(...)

If System.IO.File.Exists(txtfilepath.text) then

Dim iFile as New System.IO.FileInfo(txtfilepath.text)
iFile.Attributes = IO.FileAttributes.Hidden

End If

End Sub

I hope this solves your question!
