Dezzy.. I don't know if there is a benefit to a list of files with 250 items on it. I don't have any utilities that will know what to do with a list of files. I do however, keep a proper directory structure of only the files I've modified, which I can compare with the upgrade patch with a file compare utility. Beats the hell out of going blind looking a list of 250 files and comparing them to another list. But.... if you prefer working manually from a list, that's OK. Just seems a little tedious see more to me.
