pull range of dates/times and put into new file

Need to pull from a range of dates/times (ex. 6:00 AM March 3 through 6:00 AM March 4) from a folder and put those file names in a new file to process later. Dates would not be hard dates but dates from the folder directory, how would I do that?

More info needed.

When you say 'pull from a range of dates/times (ex. 6:00 AM March 3 through 6:00 AM March 4) from a folder', are these 'names' the names of files? Lines in a single or multiple text files?

yes... Names are the names of the files in the folder

Are you trying to get just the time stamp of the file or is the name of the file also the date stamp?

Post a sample listing of the file names.

from time/date stamp pull names of files and put into a new file

OK, now post how you want the lines in the file to look like based on those file names...

Please post "ls -la" directory listing of one of the files mentioned. This is to clarify the exact format of modified date and time stamp.

Please state whether the directory containing the files has subdirectories.

Please state approximately how many files there are in the directory.

Please post your Operating System and preferred shell (e.g. bash, ksh, etc.).

There are two common approaches to selecting all files between two dates. One involves using extensions to the "date" command in Linux to convert a character date into a binary date suitable for comparison. Another more portable unix/Linux solution involves creating temporary reference files with specific timestamps and using unix "find" (or even shell file timestamp comparison commands) to decide which files fall between the range.

After 6 months of you posting various questions we would expect less vague basic information.
I for one cannot continue with this post.
