Hi Monks, Am in a stuck up in a complex problem and being a newbie not able to solve it .. I have list of filenames without there full path in an perl array extracted from database based on Start and End Date. I have 3 directories Work,Archive,Error. I need to Check my Archive directory if there is a directory like FirstDate_LastDate with all the files which are present in my array than I need to copy them to work directory and ftp them ( I have a ftp function) .. after that remove them from work directory coz they were present in archive. If the archive dir does not contain a directory of type FirstDate_LastDate, I need to search the filename in another directory tree for each of filename present in array.If file is found in another dir (This is a directory tree with many sub directories containing diff files), I need to copy it to work dir and search for second file .. until my array gets over. Any help on this will be valuable ... Regards, Perl Wisdom Seeker - Sumit
