-x file tests not working

Re: Compiling C code from B::C | Re: -x file tests not working
hi all

I cannot do a test on a file to see if it is a directory or not. It seems 
to recognize a directory/folder as a file. the only directories it detects 
are "." and ".." links.

I am running Perl v5.8.4,  build 810 on win2000 Pro svc pack 4


opendir(BACKP,"Records");
my @m = readdir(BACKP);

foreach my $f (@m)
{
	if (-d $f)
	{
		print "<<$f\n";	
		
	}else
	{
		print "?$f\n";
	}

}

closedir(BACKP);


thanks in advance for any help.

Regards,

Jeremy A.
