I wish to further process the file name retruned in property "var" to remove the file extension (.xml). How can I go about doing this? Thanks in advance, Gavin. <target name="foreach"> <foreach target="loop" param="var"> <fileset dir="."/> </foreach> </target> <target name="loop"> . . . . </target> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
