Hi Don,

Yes, i had made a program like this to verify CD burns.
If i remember right, it will parse directories and sub directories
and compare those on one drive with those on another drive and
report any differences in bytes in any of the files it finds,
or if any files are missing or added.
I dont think it would be too hard to make it compare directories on
the same drive though, with a small amount of code change.

Another program i have does only one directory at a time, which
you enter in as a Euphoria sequences like Dir1="C:\MyDir" and
Dir2="C:\MyOtherDir" or something like that.


Take care,
Al
