These options will allow files be selected based on their file size




All file size matching are actually done on selecte size in bytes.  To make te entry of numbers easy, the units may be selected as Bytes, KB, MB or GB.  If the size of units is changed, the display is updated to match the new units.  Thus 2KB, when changed to bytes will display as 2048.  Going the other way, 2000 bytes will display as 1KB, and is actually truncated to 1024 bytes


There are 6 radio buttons that will choose the mode of selection
