    Thanks strat, Please explain as I am not sure why you have this at the end: I tried looking this up in my book but couldnt find what it is doing.
    The function find from the module File::Find expects at least two parameters:
    1. a reference to a sub
    2. a list of startdirectories (or at least one).
    E.g.
    1. find( \&wanted, $startDir );
    2. find( \&wanted, $startDir1, $startDir2 );
    3. find( sub { ... }, $startDir );
    4. find( sub { ... }, @startDirs );
    I chose construct 4.

    perldoc File::Find will give you further information.

      Thanks!
