This is cumbersome to program, simple for DOS.<br />
<br />
SHELL( &quot;XCOPY &quot;&nbsp;&amp; source &amp;&nbsp;&quot; /S /E &quot;&nbsp;&amp; target)<br />

Also have ExecCmd that makes VB wait for child to finish before continuing.<br />

Let me know if you want code to ExecCmd<br />

I want to be able to do it through the GUI. &nbsp;I just need to know how to go back a directory. &nbsp;I'm getting to the last directory and getting stuck. &nbsp;I've tried:<br />
&nbsp;dirPath.Path = dirPath.List(DirPath.ListI<wbr />ndex - 1). &nbsp;Obviousely that's wrong but I don't know why.<br />

Visual Basic is Microsoft’s event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) for its Component Object Model (COM) programming model. It is relatively easy to learn and use because of its graphical development features and BASIC heritage. It has been replaced with VB.NET, and is very similar to VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), the programming language for the Microsoft Office product line.
