Beginners guide to File::Find provides examples of how to use File::Find to traverse a directory tree, simply put you need to add files to the zip if they match your criteria in the "wanted" function. You can use this rather than a direct directory read to provide you with your list of filenames to check. You'll have to work through spurperl's tutorial, but that way you'll have learned something from this exercise ;) `print "Good ",qw(night morning afternoon evening)[(localtime)[2]/6]," fellow monks."`	[reply] [d/l]
