You didn't say what OS. If you're running Linux (or almost any UNIX based system), then I'd do something like: if (`file $file` =~ /JPEG/) { print "$file appears to be a JPEG file.\n"; } else { print "$file does not appear to be a JPEG file.\n"; } > 2-Check the file size print "$file is ",-s $file," bytes.\n"; > > Thanks in advance > -- -- Maranatha!
