Sure,my fault sorry about that,basically i'm creating the file in a folder so,how can i make sure it's done creating before start creating the second file?

I'm checking that the file size is not 0kb and the problem is that the getsize method is checking the file(it's a big file)before it's even created so the size i'm getting is 0,if the system will wait untill the file finish creating i'll be able to get it's real size and that's my problem.

can you please modify the script so it'll do what i just typed?



Thanks
