I am using below code for copy file from one folder to another.
This is not full code

If OpenFile.ShowDialog() = Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK Then
    Me.TxtFilePath.Text = OpenFile.FileName
End If
Dim fiinfo As FileInfo

TempFilePath = Me.TxtFilePath.Text.Trim()
PathforServer = "D:\"
fiinfo = New FileInfo(TempFilePath)

fiinfo.CopyTo("D:\foldername\", True)

By this code i can upload only one file.
I want to upload more than one files at a time
how can i solve this problem?

Thanks in advance

Solution 1

The quick answer is that you need to set the MultiSelect property to true. Then the user can select multiple files and you can loop through them and copy them to the other location.

Here is a question similar to yours with the correct answer attached:

Solution 2

Use the Multiselect [^]property and loop through the FileName list.

Something like this. The code is in C#, but should give you an idea.

C#

OpenFileDialog dlg = new OpenFileDialog();
dlg.Multiselect = true;

if (dlg.ShowDialog() == System.Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK)
{
	foreach (string file in dlg.FileNames)
	{
		FileInfo fileInfo = new FileInfo(file);
		fileInfo.CopyTo(@"D:\foldername\", true);
	}
}
