How to copy a text file or notepad file or .txt file in VB.NET or C# windows forms..

Hi friends, in this article I will explain about how to copy a text file or notepad file or .txt file.
I already explained in the previous article How to Create, Read, Write, Copy, Move and Delete a Text File or notepad file using C# and VB.NET

Copy the text file:

VB.NET Code:

Imports System.IO Imports System.Text Public Class Form2     Private Sub Form2_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load         Dim firstfile As String = "c:\temp\kishore.txt"         Dim copyfile As String = "c:\temp\kishore1.txt"         If File.Exists(firstfile) Then             ' If file already exists in destination, delete it.             If File.Exists(copyfile) Then                 File.Delete(copyfile)             End If             File.Copy(firstfile, copyfile)         End If     End Sub End Class

C# Code:

using Microsoft.VisualBasic; using System; using System.Collections; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Data; using System.Diagnostics; using System.IO; using System.Text; Public Class Form2 {      private void Form2_Load(System.Object sender, System.EventArgs e)      {           string firstfile = "c:\\temp\\kishore.txt";           string copyfile = "c:\\temp\\kishore1.txt";           if (File.Exists(firstfile)) {               // If file already exists in destination, delete it.               if (File.Exists(copyfile)) {                    File.Delete(copyfile);               }               File.Copy(firstfile, copyfile);           }      }     Public Form2()      {           Load += Form2_Load;      } }

                               When we execute the  above it will copy the firstfile to copy file.If the firstfile(kishore1.txt) is there in the c:\temp location then it will delete the file and create a new file kishore1.txt and copy the data from kishore.txt to kishore1.txt.
