Hello,

Is there a program that can run a search of files and folders
(also hidden) by a date rather than the default name of a file. Any
help would be appreciated.

Thank you!
 
Well, if you are running XP the built-in search will let you specify a
date range.
Select All Files and folders, then select Specify dates, enter your
date range, go for a coffee and you are good to go.

The RECENT-F program I have at my web site has an option to search
by a specified date. Anyone who likes small stand-alone programs with
very powerful search capanilities should take a look at Charles Dye's
classic LOCATE.COM (for use on the command line):

You can specify upper and lower bounds in a date/time search with
Charle's utility.

Agent Ransack from:-

It has a wide range of search criteria including date and I find it
easier to use than the built in XP search.

I'd second that.

I used that for years, liked it so much, that i went for the paid version.
Can't be beaten IMO.

Oh dear, I've mention paid for software in the hallowd and sacred precincts
of a.c.f the net police will be after me - I'm off! :-)

Cheers,

There is also FileInvader at http://www.saintlysoft.com/ with some
added features.

"FileInvader is a fast file searching utility with integrated
previewing of many popular formats including JPG,BMP,GIF,PNG,TXT,MP3
tags and much more! Now includes previewing of ZIP and RAR formats.
Unknown formats can also be viewed in hexadecimal!"

I'm sure I got it from this group a year or so ago.
