Re:Searching directories

This is allot of help LazerRed:)
I was wondering if this could be what it was, and was looking at ways of biulding the path but just couldn't get it right at all. Still allot to learn at this point.

As for the other two suggestions thanks but I think they are a little ahead of me at this point. I will keep them in mind and come back to it at some point.

I now have what I want but instead of using openDir I am now using glob. Is this a good way to go for a recursive sub?

Thanks again

Is this a good way to go for a recursive sub? Generally accepted answer: no. Use File::Find, which is a standard module, or maybe File::Find::Rule, which many people seem to prefer — I don't know it personally, but I thought I'd mention it anyway, otherwise there is bound to be a follow-up to this post pointing to it. :)	[reply]
