in reply to Renaming file with date

I'm not quite sure where you're having problems. Do you wish to replace the questions marks with some date part? If so, you have a great start with your get_date function. For the rest of the code, I would suggest you use File::Copy for the copying and Date::Manip for more complex date parsing.
