Why would I need to run the code for each directory separately? Isn't that the whole point of recursion, so it will drill down into each directory until there are no more levels? The thing is, I don't know where the text files will be within the directory structure, so I have to traverse every directory and subdirectory.

Also, on point about the regex. I tried changing it to the following:

MatchDirs => qr/.*PowerEdge (R810|R610|R720|R620|M620|M1000E).*/,
but I get the same thing.
