File find and delete for a range of time/dates

[Matt]

Does MS2000 provide anything to find a file(s) that has a
specified time of creation, or name, then delete that
range?
(Like the Unix find command with mtime options).

Do you mean Windows 2000? If so, press Win+F and select advanced options.

There are some tools that will let you do this sort of thing:
- xxcopy.exe (download from the Internet)
- forfiles.exe (Win2000 Resource Kit)
