Sounds like a question for ant-user... Ant has no built-in <find> task. That said, if I were to look for a abc.xml file anywhere in C:, I'd write a <fileset> like this: <fileset id="finder" dir="C:\" includes="**/abc.xml" /> <pathconvert property="files-found" refid="finder" /> The property files-found is now either empty, or contains one or more file paths, in an arbitrary order, all ending in abc.xml. Making sure there is only one seems possible, but convoluted. The point of using Ant to find a file is another debate... --DD -----Original Message----- From: Surender Mohan Seshadri [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, December 17, 2002 4:06 PM To: Ant Developers List Subject: File Search .
