Loop at your list with each loop sending one file.

But how to get a list file names(PDA).
and how to loop it...

pls provide code for me

thanks
 
You will have to do the following

1) Get all the "objects" in the directory (Directory.GetFiles())
2) Determine if the "object" is a directory or a file
3a) If it is a directory, goto 1
3b) If its a file, copy it over.

This will be a recursive function.

I think you should be able to write the code from there. Be warned
however, that "Every" file can not be copied since several are in the
ROM and might not be able to be copied.

Use the RAPI.EnumFiles method first, which will return a FileList
collection, then iterate through it copying each.

Try
' Connect to the device.
myrapi.Connect()
Do While Not myrapi.DevicePresent
MessageBox.Show("Please connect your device to your PC using
ActiveSync and " & _
"before clicking the OK button.", "No Device Present")
myrapi.Connect()
Loop

Catch ex As Exception
MessageBox.Show("The following error occurred while attempting
to connect to" & _
" your device - " & ex.Message, "Connection Error")
Application.Exit()
End Try

Try
Dim f As FileList = myrapi.EnumFiles("\program
files\SmartDeviceApplication3\InspectionFiles\*")
Dim i As Integer

For i = 0 To f.Count - 1
'ListBox1.Items.Add(f(i).FileName)
'ListBox1.Items.Add(myrapi.DeviceFileExists("\program
files\SmartDeviceApplication3\InspectionFiles\" & f(i).FileName))
myrapi.CopyFileFromDevice("\program
files\SmartDeviceApplication3\InspectionFiles\" & f(i).FileName,
"C:\xxsd\DownloadXML\" & f(i).FileName & ".xml")

'myrapi.CopyFileFromDevice("\program
