I have a bit of code that searches the header of MP3 files in a folder to get file 1 artist name. This is a variable artist. Now I try to search a diferent directory and see if a sub directory has the same name. So letts say the artist is Abba and I do have a sub folder in e:\music with ABBA how do I use Dir class to evaluate if Abba is found. I tried changing Abba to ABBA and still I do not get expected results. Artist = ABBA Dir.chdir("e:/music") Dir["#{artist}"] I tried a number of things here, I need a positive or negitave return; and, how to get the return value. OH Is there a way to mark a post as answered? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
