While I like C#'s dynamic better than VB's (although I'm sure if Bill's still floating around he'll argue differently) - VB actually supported 'dynamic' from day 1 . :)

Strange that this page<http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.io.directoryinfo.enumeratedirectories(VS.90).aspx> exists, more than a year after its last edit date ... obviously it is a problem with the MSDN doco since the .enumeratedirectory (etc) doesn't work with v3.5 target. I have been using v4.0 for all disk file traversing, and for the Dynamic keyword in C# 4.0 - I think this will be in Visual Basic too, when the v4.5 Framework is released. ________________________________ Ian Thomas Victoria Park, Western Australia ________________________________ From: ozdotnet-boun...@ozdotnet.com [mailto:ozdotnet-boun...@ozdotnet.com] On Behalf Of David Kean Sent: Monday, October 03, 2011 11:00 AM To: ozDotNet Subject: RE: In praise of DirectoryInfo Framework 4 Pretty sure we added the EnumerateXXX in 4.0, not 3.5.

And, I was correct - those (originally-cited) methods were in v3.5. But the .TryParse additions I had not seen.
