Script moving files based on date

Hi,

I need a script that moves files based on date to a folder. The folder should be created based on file date. Example is :

Date file name
----- --------
Oct 08 07:39 10112012_073952.xls
Oct 09 07:39 10112012_073952.xls
Oct 10 07:39 10112012_073952.xls
Oct 11 07:39 10112012_073952.xls

and it should create like below :

Folder names should be like:

08Oct2012
09Oct2012
10Oct2012
11Oct2012

Files should be moved to respective folders based on date like :

08Oct2012 -->Oct 08 07:39 10112012_073952.xls
09Oct2012 -->Oct 09 07:39 10112012_073952.xls
10Oct2012 -->Oct 10 07:39 10112012_073952.xls
11Oct2012 -->Oct 11 07:39 10112012_073952.xls

Let me know the script how to achieve this.
