Hi,
try "find . -mtime -2" ->finds files less than 2 days old
or
"find . -mtime +2" ->finds files more than 2 days old

Thanks, you nailed it! Simplicity is usually the best policy. I have
to believe I tried that about 5 times and must not have noticed the
results. Now I'll start adding in the awk / xargs ls -l components
that somehow redirect etc. I guess the newer component may help me
too. Thanks so much!
