Seems like a convoluted way of doing things to me. If you have the opportunity to redesign it so that the data is stored in a database of some sort rather than text files then you'll have a much more robust solution.

The only way you can detect that a file's contents have actually changed is to read it. The way you can tell if a file has been touched (i.e. written, modified or created) is to inspect the file's creation date or modified date in the file system. At the very least you'll then be able to detect and read only the changed files and not all 56.

As an advanced topic you can also be advised of a file's change of status by some system events, but this is I think beyond the scope of this forum. There are articles on The Code Project that discuss this issue if you wish to pursue it.
