Apologies to Sergey (and to everybody else). I really messed that up. I _meant_ to say:

"This is probably the first time you've told something that I already knew ;-)"

I'll be shopping for a foot-in-mouth extractor on ebay this evening.

Again, my apologies.

It would be very similar to the way Explorer works with the results of a "Search" operation. What's unique about this is that it needs to work with input being an explicit list of files by exact name, no wildcards. Thanks!
