you could use this: http://tutorial160.easycfm.com
but instead of looking for an extension, you could look for "lastmodifieddate" ;) Pablo ----- Original Message ----- From: "S.

I don't _think_ the dos comman includes a means of sorting or filtering by modified date, although if it does that might help considerably, then you could write a regex to retreive the file names from the output... > > > If speed is an issue: > > > create a template that gets executed at a convient time > > (every 30 mins?) > > and CFDirectory travereses the tree and adds the name/path > > of modified > > files to a sessionvar|query|db|xml|text-file > > > (and also make it possible to trigger that on request) > > > > > ---------------------------------------------------------- > > --- > > Hugo Ahlenius E-Mail: > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Project Officer Phone: +46 8 > > 230460 > > UNEP GRID-Arendal Fax: +46 8 > > 230441 > > Stockholm Office Mobile: +46 733 > > 467111 > > WWW: > > http://www.grida.no > > ---------------------------------------------------------- > > --- > > > > > > > > | -----Original Message----- > > | From: Calvin Ward [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > | Sent: Wednesday, July 30, 2003 12:52 > > | To: CF-Talk > > | Subject: Re: Finding recently modified files in > > subdirectories > > | > > | > > | Stephen, > > | > > | CFDirectory fails the speed consideration, when > > enumerating > > | sub directories > > | it isn't fast enough, especially when you can't count on > > Windows 2000 > > | delivering a last modified date that is relevant to all > > files in all > > | subdirectories for a given directory.
