Re^6: help with Archive::tar

Hello graff,
I got a chance to check out the code that you posted. However when it hits line 25 I am getting a message that there was a checksum error and blows up at this point.
Here is the output mess when i run the script:

I am pretty much lost at this point,

ok i am stupid (and tired) the toc file is extracted and it looks fine. It extracted to my desktop where i ran the script from. Everything thanks a ton for helping me out with this. I really appreciate the help and I learned something new :)	[reply]
