PowerBASIC Syntax

METHOD Move ( _

BYVAL bstrDestination AS STRING _

)

Arguments

bstrDestination

BSTR. Destination where the folder is to be moved. Wildcard characters are not allowed.

The results of the Move method on a Folder are identical to operations performed using FileSystemObject.MoveFolder. You should note, however, that the alternative methods are capable of moving multiple folders.

Example [PowerBASIC]

#INCLUDE "windows.inc"

#INCLUDE "scrrun.inc"

DIM fso AS IFileSystem

DIM pFolder AS IFolder

' Create an instance of the FileSystemObject

fso = NEWCOM "Scripting.FileSystemObject"

' Get a reference to the IFile interface

pFolder = fso.GetFolder(UCODE$("C:\MyFolder"))

' Move the folder to another location

pFolder.Move UCODE$("C:\MyNewFolder")

IF OBJRESULT = %S_OK THEN

MSGBOX "Folder moved"

ELSE

MSGBOX "Error &H" & HEX$(OBJRESULT) & " moving the folder"

END IF
