Hey all, I am trying to create a program that back's up specific files on my PC. I am currently using the GetDirectories() function since the directory that I am pulling from has a randomized string of characters so I have to use RegEx's to get the static part of the directory. This however, causes the data type to be multiple string and I can then no longer use it as a single string. There is only 1 directory that will match the description I have set, so I am wondering if there is a way to use only a string and not a multiple string. Here is my code: Code: Dim keydb, keyfile As String Dim Profile As String = My.Computer.FileSystem.SpecialDirectories.CurrentUserApplicationData + "mydir" Dim base As New DirectoryInfo(Profile) Dim maindir() As DirectoryInfo = base.GetDirectories("*.xyz") For this code, How do I get maindir() as a single string and not a multiple string? Thanks --edit-- After more searching online, i found a way to get what i wanted with a for loop.
