I don't believe File::Find caches, what I believe you are seeing is your operating system caching the information of the file system. You won't need to worry about it keeping it in memory, or being out of date as the operating system will handle both of those issues for you automagically. --------------------------------- Frank Wiles <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://frank.wiles.org --------------------------------- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
