Save multiple files within a folder

[Janice Hui]

I want to create a save function which allows the user to save all files within a folder.
User needs to provide a folder name.
Could anyone give me an idea how to do it?

Use the SaveFileDialog in the toolbox.

Hi tlhintoq,

Thank for you reply.

However, what i needed is the system will prompt a browser folder window that allows the user to enter the folder name. Then, the system will automatically save two files within created folder. I am using wpf and C#, currently i found the way to do it by using the BrowserFolderDi alog but only supported when using the forms. Is there another ways for me to do it?

Thank.

I've never created a WPF application until just now... but it sure seems like it let me make a FolderBrowserDi alog.

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows;
using System.Windows.Controls;
using System.Windows.Data;
using System.Windows.Documents;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.Windows.Input;
using System.Windows.Media;
using System.Windows.Media.Imaging;
using System.Windows.Navigation;
using System.Windows.Shapes;
using MessageBox=System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox;

namespace WpfApplication1
{
    /// <summary>
    /// Interaction logic for Window1.xaml
    /// </summary>
    public partial class Window1 : Window
    {
        public Window1()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
            System.Windows.Forms.FolderBrowserDialog bob = new FolderBrowserDialog();
            bob.ShowDialog();
            string BobsPath = bob.SelectedPath;
            MessageBox.Show(BobsPath, "User Selected");
        }
    }
}

Hi tlhintoq,

Thank a lot for your guide.

Based on your explanation, i already get what i need.
And, in order for me to save the file to the particular folder, i add the following code.

using (XmlReader reader = XmlReader.Creat e(bob.SelectedP ath + @"\\abc.xml" ))

If you are using the @ in front of your string, you shouldn't need to use a double \\

In fact that should be making your path

C:\returnedfold er\\abc.xml

instead of
C:\returnedfold er\abc.xml

Where you have an extra (blank) level of folder hiarchy

I got it.
Thank you! =)
