the relevant snippet is... NAME="*.mov" cd $IN if test -n "$(find . -maxdepth 1 -name $NAME -print -quit)"
and if there is one file in this directory - ie test.mov, this works fine but if there are two (or more) files in this directory - test.mov, test2.mov then I get an error... find: paths must precede expression So my code is evidently wrong. I just want a test for 1 or more files ending in .mov in the directory? Any one want to toss me a bone here? -- Craig White ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ craig.wh...@ttiltd.com 1.800.869.6908 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ www.ttiassessments.com Need help communicating between generations at work to achieve your desired success?
