Resolved Export resource file to folder

[BlackByte]

Hi, i have program that must connect to a database at startup, i want the program to first check if the database exists (incase the user deleted it by mistake). If it doesnt exist the program must copy one which i have as a resource, to a certain folder. I have run into a minor problem though.. How do i copy the file from resources to the folder because, the IO.File.Copy() method only allows me to put the file path. Also maybe if there was a way to convert the resource database file to a binary array, it would also be helpfull.

My.Computer.FileSystem.WriteAllBytes("filepath", My.Resources.dbfile, False)
