Hi Jim,

I tried your example - I created two files called dummy1 and dummy2, ran the touch command so they would have today & yesterday's date. Then tried your command listed below. I got a 'missing conjunction' error. What did I type incorrectly? Thanks for all your help. L

ucasd84:iclac:/home/iclac# ll dummy*
-rw-r--r-- 1 iclac lawson 1 May 27 00:00 dummy1
-rw-r--r-- 1 iclac lawson 43 May 28 13:28 dummy2

ucasd84:iclac:/home/iclac# find . \( -newer dummy1 -a ! -newer dummy2 \) ./t.awk ./filename ./dummy2
find: 0652-009 There is a missing conjunction
