That is what the last guy said - just kidding:-) The next time you encounter this, would you be able to investigate the nature of the differences, perhaps even resorting to a binary level diff.? Also if you could give us the <copy> snippet. Finally there may be other "line-oriented" processes being run over the files. This could be other Ant tasks such as <fixcrlf> being applied to more files that it should or something like that. Any info would help to track down any issues. Thanks Conor
