Hello Spacebar,

Thank you so much for your help. I copied your code and run it. The result is almost there. Would you please help to fix two small problems below.

1-The file name is broke down to multiple file names because of the file name contains space bar.

2-The id counter should counter id=1, id=2 ,id=3 etc...

Otherwise it's perfect. Here is the output from your code.

Code:

<?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8?>
<Karaoke>
<item name= "0001" id="1">/dir1/0001</item>
<item name= "More" id="1">/More/More</item>
<item name= "Than" id="1">/Than/Than</item>
<item name= "I" id="1">/I/I</item>
<item name= "Can" id="1">/Can/Can</item>
<item name= "Say.vob" id="1">/Say.vob/Say.vob</item>
<item name= "0002" id="1">/dir1/0002</item>
<item name= "Morning" id="1">/Morning/Morning</item>
<item name= "Has" id="1">/Has/Has</item>
<item name= "Broken.vob" id="1">/Broken.vob/Broken.vob</item>
<item name= "0003" id="1">/dir1/0003</item>
<item name= "My" id="1">/My/My</item>
