but when i convert to string it changes as
\\192.168.2.89\BwLive\2011-2-16 \\192.168.2.89\BwLive\SWP-Full Database Backup_2011-02-13 \\192.168.2.89\BwLive\SWP-Full
Database Backup_2011-02-16.bak \\192.168.2.89\BwLive\SWP-Full Database Backup_2011-02-12 \\192.168.2.89\BwLive\SWP-Full
Database Backup_2011-02-14
i mean length,size,time attributes is omitted
how can i keep these attributes while converting to string?
thanks.
