don't do it this way. Use FileSystemWatcher instead. This capability is built into the framework and is FASTER.

Wasn't up to speed on FileSystemWatcher, it would be faster. However, you would still have to write similar code (using FSW) because FileSystemWatcher does not support Regular Expressions.

I also forgot to mention that another reason I skimmed over FileSystemWatcher is because I wasn't just looking for the Creation of a file, I was looking for the EXISTENCE of a file.
This is more fail-safe for my needs. For instance, if the FSW wasn't running when the file was created, then the event wouldn't be triggered ever again. I was looking for something more fail safe.
