I just solved it. It's always something silly. Basically, the builder wasn't finished copying all the files...it was off by about 30 seconds. So of course when I run the nant file it works *after* the build was complete, but unfortunately, when the build was running, the files really weren't there. A while ago, the files did finish copying earlier, but as time went on the file size grew. And that's when that copy command got longer.
The code is fine, my copy was simply taking too long, I'll have to incorporate it into Nant file rather than the builder. Many thanks to all of you who took the time. At least I learned the filecount function. Thanks again!!!
