Size vs. Size on disk - What's the diff?

[cpgoose]

Hey,

I was just curious when you check out the properties of a file or a folder
(in windows2000), that when it tells you the size and size on disk....what's
the difference in the two?

I'm looking at one now that says it's 35 megs big, but the "size on disk"
says it's 117? What gives?

THANKS!

So the actual size is the "size".
