Thanks for this. "Example" - is a typical log file entry I have:

New Dir         16    x:\xxxxxx\xxx\
        New File            126862    xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx
        New File             48640    xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx
        New File             96494    xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx
        New File            105466    xxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx
        New File            653655    xxxxxxxxxx.xxx
        New File            542396    xxxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx
      New Dir          6    y:\yyyyyyyyy\yyyyyyyyyyy\yyyyyyy\
        New File             41984    yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.yyy
        New File             10007    yyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.yyy
        New File             1.3 m    yyyyyy.yyy

"Result" - what I want to achieve is this:

New Dir         16    x:\xxxxxx\xxx\
        New File  x:\xxxxxx\xxx\          126862    xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
+xxxxx.xxx
        New File  x:\xxxxxx\xxx\           48640    xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
+xxxxxxx.xxx
        New File  x:\xxxxxx\xxx\           96494    xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
+xxxx.xxx
        New File  x:\xxxxxx\xxx\          105466    xxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx
        New File  x:\xxxxxx\xxx\          653655    xxxxxxxxxx.xxx
        New File  x:\xxxxxx\xxx\          542396    xxxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx
        New Dir          6    y:\yyyyyyyyy\yyyyyyyyyyy\yyyyyyy\
        New File  y:\yyyyyyyyy\yyyyyyyyyyy\yyyyyyy\           41984   
+ yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.yyy
        New File  y:\yyyyyyyyy\yyyyyyyyyyy\yyyyyyy\           10007   
+ yyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.yyy
        New File  y:\yyyyyyyyy\yyyyyyyyyyy\yyyyyyy\           1.3 m   
+ yyyyyy.yyy

It's almost there except I can't get the full folder path to match its associated file(s)

To get $dir to work, does that go within my loop?

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.


Do you know where your variables are?
