Hi. I have the following code:
Imports System.IO
Public Class Blah
Public Sub New()
InitializeComponent()
Dim watcher As New FileSystemWatcher("C:\")
watcher.EnableRaisingEvents = True
AddHandler watcher.Changed, AddressOf watcher_Changed
End Sub
Private Sub watcher_Changed(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As FileSystemEventArgs)
MsgBox(e.FullPath)
End Sub
End Class
When I run it and save changes to a file on my C drive, the code works great, except it executes the watcher_Changed() method four times. Any idea why? The changeType is "4" every time.
Thanks.
