Once upon a time, a programmer could send the entire directory tree to a
text file by using the command:
dir c: >directory.txt

Is there a way to do this in VB.NET? I need the text file to contain all of
the directories, subdirectories, and files along with file size and total
directory size. Thanks in advance!!!!

There is no built-in method to do that. Have a look at the classes in
the 'System.IO' namespace, namely 'Directory', 'File', 'DirectoryInfo'
and 'FileInfo' and the 'StreamWriter' for writing the information to the
file.
