Hi frank, one more help please,
I do below to list my files in chronological order.
ls -ltr *.datx* | tr -s ' ' | cut -d' ' -f9
it gives me list of files like below.
lock_eicu_20081120_00000000.datx_20081120_05315400
lock_eicu_20081118_00000000.datx_20081118_06303100

lock_eicu_20071228_00000000.datx_20071228_05343100
how do i sort the files again chronologically as per the date found just after .datx?
i mean in the list if u see "lock_eicu_20071228_00000000.datx_20071228_05343100" is the oldest file as it has date 20071228 after datx. so i need to list this file first and then sort so on.
Please help. Thanks again
