I don't think we have this functionality in the FCL off the shelf =
however, you could write a very simple recursive method which does it or =
better still, if ur one of my types......
System.Diagnostics.Process oProcess =3D new =
System.Diagnostics.Process();
oProcess.StartInfo.FileName =3D "xcopy";
oProcess.StartInfo.Arguments =3D String.Format(@" ""{0}"" ""{1}"" /S /E =
/Y", source,
destination);
oProcess.Start();
.... use the good old XCopy and get the job done with minimum fuss.
HTH, Metallikanz!
