I am interested to know and to hear more from what you mentioned here. I have 
dir. listings and batch's running all over the place. I have changed some out to 
.tcf's but I would really like to hear about your idea,  "simple JavaBean". I have 
never gotten into these and I would like to hear more. Maybe off list? But probably 
there are others that can stand to hear what you have to say.

You could also build a simple JavaBean to do it as well.  However, the batch file is
probably the best for a quick solution.
