As brother thargas has explained, you need to look at the documentation. Type `perldoc File::Find` and you'll be presented with an example in the Synopsis section that should answer your question: `use File::Find; find(\&wanted, @directories_to_search); sub wanted { ... }` [download] You pass `File::Find::find` two parameters: a reference to a function that will be called when a matching file is found, and a list of directories to be searched. And it should Just Work(tm). Alex / talexb / Toronto "Groklaw is the open-source mentality applied to legal research" ~ Linus Torvalds	[reply] [d/l] [select]
