Ok, I seem to be getting closer at least. If someone has a minute and would't mind 
helping me out here I would appriciate it. Nothing urgent or a priority. This is what 
I have so far. It creates the works.txt but the file does not contain any information 
in it. Thanks in advance for the help.

<project name="FileRead" default="Read">
   <target name = "Read">
 
    <fileset dir="c:\test" id="craig">
       <include name="**/*.txt"/>
    </fileset>
  <pathconvert pathsep="," refid="craig" property="works">
  </pathconvert>
   <echo file="c:\works.txt" append="true">
   </echo>
  
   </target>
</project>
