I wonder why you get the file names printed out using `print "copying $File::Find::file from $File::Find::dir\n";` [download] since there's no variable `$File::Find::file` in File::Find - at least in my version (1.10). What version do you have (`print $File::Find::VERSION`) ? What happens if you change `my @location=("\\\\network1\\pics","\\\\network1\\fonts","\\\\network1 +\\forms");` [download] to `my @location = ("//network1/pics", "//network1/fonts", "//network1/for +ms");` [download] - does `$File::Find::name` hold the full path, then?

It works now. I have no clue what changed the behavior.And it didnt work when i had $file::Find::file .I instead just used $file that is assigned t the current value of $_. I used just the mapped network drive in the path. thanks Sandhya	[reply]
