The FileInfo class provides the following properties that enable you to retrieve information about a file. For an example of how to use each property, see the property pages. The Directory property retrieves an object that represents the parent directory of a file.
The DirectoryName property retrieves the full path of the parent directory of a file. The Exists property checks for the presence of a file before operating on it.
The IsReadOnly property retrieves or sets a value that specifies whether a file can be modified. The Length retrieves the size of a file. The Name retrieves the name of a file. Initializes a new instance of the FileInfo class, which acts as a wrapper for a file path. Gets or sets the creation time, in coordinated universal time UTC , of the current file or directory.
Gets the extension part of the file name, including the leading dot. Gets or sets the time, in coordinated universal time UTC , that the current file or directory was last accessed. Gets or sets the time, in coordinated universal time UTC , when the current file or directory was last written to. If this FileSystemInfo instance represents a link, returns the link target's path. If a link does not exist in FullName , or this instance does not represent a link, returns null.
Creates a StreamWriter that appends text to the file represented by this instance of the FileInfo. Creates a symbolic link located in FullName that points to the specified pathToTarget.
Creates an object that contains all the relevant information required to generate a proxy used to communicate with a remote object. Creates a StreamWriter that writes a new text file. Decrypts a file that was encrypted by the current account using the Encrypt method. Gets a FileSecurity object that encapsulates the access control list ACL entries for the file described by the current FileInfo object. Gets a FileSecurity object that encapsulates the specified type of access control list ACL entries for the file described by the current FileInfo object.
Retrieves the current lifetime service object that controls the lifetime policy for this instance. Sets the SerializationInfo object with the file name and additional exception information. Gets the Type of the current instance. Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. Creates a shallow copy of the current MarshalByRefObject object. Moves a specified file to a new location, providing the options to specify a new file name and to overwrite the destination file if it already exists.
Creates a read-only FileStream. Creates a write-only FileStream. Replaces the contents of a specified file with the file described by the current FileInfo object, deleting the original file, and creating a backup of the replaced file. Also specifies whether to ignore merge errors. Returns the path as a string.
Use the Name property for the full path. Creates a new file stream, ensuring it is created with the specified properties and security settings. Combine returns a string, so this will fix your second error, which you were getting due to trying to assign a string to a Path variable. Combine returns a string , not a Path object and Path is a static class, so you can't have an instance of it anyways. Stack Overflow for Teams — Collaborate and share knowledge with a private group.

In some cases, it's important to talk this way. Let me ask you: would you rather prefer lie? Member Jan pm. I know where you're coming from but honestly you're going to turn people away from asking questions and learning - not only the people you respond to in this fashion but all the people who are coming here for an answer, seeing things like this and saying "i'm out".
Don't ever forget where you came from - you did not come out of your mother writing code. Whether you learned on your own or someone taught you - I will bet my life you've asked someone a question about something you did not understand.
Now imagine they made you feel stupid for asking and not much else. Member Dec am. No, you're just plain rude. Brandon Fitzgibbon Apr am. The most helpful thing you could have done was point him towards FileStream or FileInfo if he wanted static objects that can hold file related data. If he's programming for Excel, he's probably just mixing something together real quick for work. Not everyone needs to be a top-down AAA programmer to build a helpful utility. Sergey Alexandrovich Kryukov Jan pm.
Not true. Understanding fundamentals is primary thing, some particular classes — secondary. Some "help" is like urinating into pants on freezing air: at first, it feels warmer.
Sorry for the rude joke. If a person don't understand the fundamentals, especially so simple, FileStream won't help. And even if it helps now, it's good only until the next static class or something similar and as trivial. Do you want our inquirers to remain inquirers forever? I doubt it. See also: Give a man a fish…. Can you see the point? Well, that pretty much describes the nature of the error in a very neat and explicit fashion: you cannot declare a variable to hold a reference to an instance of static class, because static classes cannot be instantiated, in the first place.
I think what you're looking for is the FileStream class, you can get an instance of this class in several ways; calling File. Open with the appropriate arguments is one of them. Posted Jan pm User Add your solution here. OK Paste as.
