Field Value

FileAttribute

Remarks

When you call the Dir, GetAttr, or SetAttr functions, you can use the FileAttribute enumeration in your code in place of the actual values.

The Attributes argument takes the FileAttribute enumeration members.

When performing file I/O operations, the My.Computer.FileSystem object provides greater performance and ease of use than legacy file I/O methods. For more information, see FileSystem object.
