XML Files as Database Files

Hello

I'm new to C#, but I already know some other languages like C, C++, and Perl. I have this project that I need to be done with by the mid of Jone. This project has to be written in C#, and the database files are all in XML language. C# already has external classes that are alreay built to deal with XML files as database files. You can include those classes by after the following codes:



I already know how to read from an XML file, and how to write to an XML file. A read is done with a specific syntax scenario, as well as the writing format. So, it's not a big deal. However, I want to know further more about how to deal with XML files, such as:

1- How do I copy an entire XML file that exists in a specific directory to another? I'm seeking an answer that has a certain function that takes care of this rather than a for loop of reading single entries from the XML file and writing them to anothet file one by another.

2- How do I know if there is a certain file that exists in a certain directory?

3- How do I read a directory?

I'm appreciating the help of any of you guys.

Thanks in Advance.

This isn't a XML related question. You just have to deal with the System.IO namespace. Then you can move files, check if specified files exists, and do everything you asked. Just take a look at the System.IO namespace documentation from MSDN.
