Hi Conrad. FileIO and FileXtra can't really be compared as such. The two Xtras perform very different but complimentary operations. FileIO is used to open, read and write to text files. FileXtra is used to perform a number of File related operations such as listing available drives, checking for a CD-ROM drive, copying files, deleting files and many more. For a full list type put mMessageList(xtra "FileXtra") in your message window. This will give you a list of all the operations you can use. You can also do this for the FileIO xtra by using "FileIO" instead of "FileXtra" in the mMessageList call. I hope this helps.
