Basically, I'm trying to get a list of files/folders along with
a separate list of the sizes of said files. The array deletions
I asked about would be the deletion of files enclosed in folders
from the original file list and using the position of the items
in the file list to delete the corresponding array position in
the separate size list of those files.

And thanks to everyone who responded. 101 ways to do this would
be great, but I'll settle for 4 or 5. ;-)

This has been very helpful.
