[QUOTE="John Greer, post: 1287231, member: 205360"] I'm trying to create a single Zip file called WORD in the /Volumes/Backup2048/ folder. This zip file will contain all the *.wbk and Backup*.docx files on any drive on my iMac. I think my problem is more fundamental. :Confused: If I say[INDENT][COLOR="Blue"]ls -G -h -k -R /Volume/*.wbk[/COLOR][/INDENT]it returns[INDENT][COLOR="Red"]ls: /Volume/*.wbk: No such file or directory[/COLOR][/INDENT] yet if I drill down to the directory that contains the files, the LS command works. It's almost as if the -R switch is not working for this command. -R works for other files. Strange... [/QUOTE]
