I'm not sure if I really understand what you are trying to do, but here
is a suggestion that might give you some ideas that will put you on track
to the solution:
Get into your DOS manual and take a look at the XCOPY command. Study the
use of the "/D:date" command line switch.
I hope this helps.
All the best,
Sam Heywood
