Hi, Roland-- That works great -- thank you! Ok... Would you mind if I asked you the next step? I'm now able to find all the files on the startup volume and not any other volumes. But now I need to be able to also see that same criteria for a particular volume which is *not* the startup drive, i.e., a specific volume which is contained in the Volumes directory, say 'foo'. In other words, I need to be able to isolate particular volumes to perform the find. I then would like to be able to have the modification date and filesize added to the display of the path and filename, and then sort the results by the mod. date in descending order. Is there a way to do that?
