That will handle the copy part, but it doesn't seem to do a rolling purge of 
what's on the destination - neither to the /purge or /mir switches.

Subject: Robocopy - rolling copy of the last X days?

This is a little embarrassing as I'm sure I'm missing something obvious but... 
how can I use robocopy to copy the last X days of files from source to 
destination, so that the destination only ever contains the last X days too?

I can tell it to ignore the old files in the source, what I simply cannot 
fathom is how to make it mirror this to the destination so I only ever have the 
last X days worth of files.

Thanks,
Paul
