I was wondering if there is a quicker way of getting a directory listing from a disk. I am currently doing the following but it takes a bit of time if I happen to have to search multiple 250Gb drives.
# # Trying to locate tests on the systems disks and establish paths to them"; # $i = c d e; @array = ""; foreach $i (split/ /,$disk) { print "\nChecking $i: for the tests....."; @array1= `dir $i:\\ /B /S`; # Establish a count of how big the array is for stepping through the array later to find the .exe file $lineC = @array1; # append the array if more than one disk is selected push(@array, @array1); } Regards, Ed
