    File size comparison

    Ok, seems you guys were right. I really do need to 'fingerprint' the files. I will probably only do this if the sizes are similar. The question is, how? I've had a look at the MD5 post and it's all gobbledeegook to me.

    File size comparison

    The files are compiled Progress 4gl files. Even with a similar num of characters, any coding difference will generate a different sized compiled code. It is ''relatively'' safe.

    File size comparison

    Guys, Thank you so much for all the help. It really is awesome. Basically wanted to compare the 2 files and if they are different size, flag them so that we can check for differences. What you've given allows me to do this.

    File size comparison

    Hi, I am new to PERL and need to write a script to compare 2 files of the same name in different directories. If the file sizes are different, I need to output the file name. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Les
