Where do I put my files I want included in the program?

[aedwall]

I am writing this code:

If File.Exists(File.DirRootExternal, filename) = False Then Return ""

It never finds my file named "filename". I have my files saved in the Files folder under my project. Where should I keep my files in the project so they can be found by the code? Thank you.


I think the solution is:

Add the file to the Files tab.

The code you are using refers to your external sd card location, not the program's internal area.

Yes, I changed my file references to "File.DirAssets" and it now finds the file.

Where is (File.DirAssets) folder to include pictures with my apk file like:
LoadBitmap(File.DirAssets,"gray.png")

It's under <project>/Files

Anything you put in there will be picked up by File.DirAssets

Sorry, I meant <project>\Files

You should go to the Files tab in the IDE and add the files from this tab.
