JSI Tip 0274 - Delete files older than xx days.

DELOLD is a freeware Visual Basic utililty that can delete files older than xx days in the target directory. It can be run from the command line, batch file, or a shortcut.

One of my favorite uses is to schedule the deletion of *.DOC files from a network share (using the local path) when the document is 60 days old:

AT \ServerHostingShare 01:00 /interactive /every:M,T,W,Th,F,S,Su "DELOLD Directory*.DOC 60"

Install DELOLD somewhere in the System Path. See the readme file for additional information.
