Hi all,

  I am new to perl and am working on in a Windows 2000 enviroment. I
have the need to compare the last access time of a file to the system
date and if it is greater that 2 weeks prior to the system date write
that file to a text file that will be used to archive the file.

  Any help would be appreciated.
  Thanks

I am trying to compare a file's modified timestamp with the current date.
 
I can use 'stat' to get the timestamp of the file but am not sure how to compare it to the localtime(). More importantly I want to be able to quantify the difference in days, month, hours and minutes. 
 
Any suggestions?

2.URGENT HELP NEEDED--compare current date file with previous day

Hi All,

I am new in perl. I have report files which generate in particular
location day by day. I need to write a script to compare the current
date file with the previous day for first line. If there is a
difference it will generate email automatically to the users. The log
files with other few files generate in a folder which is named by date
(format: MM-DD-YY).

Some key points:

Location of the log files file:

/home/usr/09-26-06/log1.rpt and I need to compare with the previous
day: /home/usr/09-25-06/log1.rpt.... some thing like that.

The log.rpt file looks like:

PASS (P) 10
FAIL   (F)  1.............................

I need to compare the second line. If the no. of FAIL changes then it
will send email automatically to the users.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks.

4.How compare two dates or convert date to number

Perl neophyte here.

I have a record date in the format mm/dd/yyyy and I want to compare it to
another date in the same format. Is there a simple way to accomplish this
task? All I want to do is say 'if date1 <= date0' do or don't do
something. I've looked, but to no avail. Help please...

Thank you in advance,

Hugh

That depends upon if the file system (not the OS!) supports such a
value.
And for legal matters also if there are any means to set that value
manually.
