Get Information About a File in Visual Basic
To get information about a file:
Use the GetFileInfo method to retrieve a FileInfo object that can be examined to determine its properties. The following example retrieves a FileInfo object for the file MyLogFile.log.
Dim information As System.IO.FileInfo
information = My.Computer.FileSystem.GetFileInfo("C:\samplefile.txt")
Examine the FileInfo object to extract the information you need. The following lines of code
report the file's full name, last access time, and length.
MsgBox("The file's full name is " & information.FullName & ".")
MsgBox("Last access time is " & information.LastAccessTime & ".")
MsgBox("The length is " & information.Length & ".")
