in thread using grep on a directory to list files for a single date

Thanks - you have all been fantastic. Really greatfull for everybodies assistance

I had a bit of a search around for info about NTFS file table (Master File Table) but not found much in the way of accessing through perl. There is a win32::adminMisc which sounds like it might be up to the job but still reading up on it :(

Had to make a few changes to the script to get it to run
while (my $file = readdir(DIR)) {
while(<DIR>){ <- didn't work. (well not for me).

Once again - Thanks...

    angle bracks <...> can only be used with file handles, not directory handles.
