Hi Matt thanks for the suggestion.

Unfortunately import does not appear to support the <fileset> type. When 
running this I get the following error: "import doesn't support the nested 
fileset element". I had another hunt around the internet and found a solution 
(have yet to try it but it looks like it should work). 
For anyone who is interested take a look at Question 17 at 
http://wiki.apache.org/ant/AntNewbies
