Is there any way to call nconvert in a dos batch file to only process files modified either before or after a certain date?

You cannot do it in a DOS batch file. However, in Windows batch files you can use the forfiles program which takes the /D option:

Code: Select all

/D    date          Selects files with a last modified date greater
                    than or equal to (+), or less than or equal to
                    (-), the specified date using the
                    "yyyy-MM-dd" format; or selects files with a
                    last modified date greater than or equal to (+)
                    the current date plus "dd" days, or less than or
                    equal to (-) the current date minus "dd" days. A
                    valid "dd" number of days can be any number in
                    the range of 0 - 32768.
                    "+" is taken as default sign if not specified.

Forfiles is included at least since Windows Vista and was part of the Windows Resource Kit before.

Thanks for the idea, Joey. That should work well on the more modern versions of Windows.
