One easy way is the touch and the find command

1. Touch a file with the date you want to search from.  

        touch -t date_time file_name

        where date_time is in the form of yyyymmddhhmi.ss
          and file_name is the name of a temp file to use on the search. 
                I often use 'time_file'

1. use the newer option on the find command, based on your time file.

        find . -name "*" -newer time_file

        It will find all files starting in this directory, that you have
access to,
        that are newer in time than the file called 'time_file'

For example, if you want to find all files that were created in the last 50
days, you need to know the following:
        todays date                     (June 27)
        the date 50 days ago    (about may 10)

you then touch the time_file with that date

        touch -t 200105100000.00 time_file

you then use the find command to locate any files newer than that:

        find . -name "*" -newer time_file


If you happen to need a shell script to do the date math for you (i.e.
subtract and find the exact date 50 days ago), I have that.  Just ask.
