Hi

I would like to delete files that has a date older than a month.
Is there anyone who know any toll or script that can do that?

Here's how I delete files older than 30 days, using 4NT:
DEL /[d-30,1980/1/1]

I use this regularly to delete old log files and such.

4NT's date ranges are documented at

If you really want to delete files older than exactly one month, ask
again - it will require a slightly more elaborate solution. But I
suspect "older than 30 days" might suffice.
