How do I perform a command on all files + subdirectories

Simple Question:
I need to get a MD5Sum on all the files in the current directory and subdirectories down from here, and spit that to a file.

MD5Sum * > myfile.txt
only does the current directory, but nothing lower.

Can somebody email me the answer to robertbrownell at yahoo dot com

Code:

find . -type f -print0 |xargs -0 md5sum > myfile.txt

I figured it out, I was trying to get all the files verified on my webserver www.DivineRevelations.info. Thanks.
