I'm not sure I'm in the right newsgroup for this
I have a system. that creates log files automatically and just keeps filling
up the disk. I was thinkingof using the W2000 task scheduler to run a script
every day and delete the files in that folder that are more than 30 days
old.

How can I do this?

Any help appreciated,
Bob
