Thanks Gilbert.
I ran a test of your script and received the following error.

When i make the following change to the script to just output the filename at a
certain location of the arrray i do get a filename
<script language="ruby">
<![CDATA[
str=File.basename(Dir["J:/test/*.xml"].sort[3])
$project.setProperty "myproperty", str
]]>
</script>
<echo>
$${myproperty} == ${myproperty}
</echo>
i get the following
step01:
[echo]
[echo] ${myproperty} == 19750625_0003.xml
Is there something wrong with my setup or do i need to change the gsub portion.
