Hello all, I'm wondering if it is possible to defrag a single file using VB
in order to speed up that same file's access time....

I have determined that my application runs a lot faster that way, but it's
kind of a pain to defrag the whole disk each time.

Thanks in advance...!

You could try copying the file - as the filesystem knows what size it is, it
may well put it into contiguous blocks. Or not - depending on the phase of
the moon etc.
