“C:\Benoy\temp1.txt”
Dim objFS As FileStream = _ File.Create(strMyPath)

End Try
10. The class FileInfo provides the same file management operation as in File class such as Creating, Opening, Deleting, Copying and Moving of files using FileStream objects, except if you are not reusing the object several times because the security check is not always necessary.

Some of the public methods used with this class are shown below:
- FileName – The associated filename that causes exception.
- FusionLog – Get the log file.
- HelpLink - Help Link association during exception error.
- InnerException – An inner exception that caused the current exception.
