What options are available to edit the results, for example I am trying to remove the full file path to only show the file name. I am wanting to remove the permissions that are displayed as well. I have been trying to use the sed command but not having much joy. Is it possible to display column heading for example modified by etc.

Editing options are countless - show us what you get and show us what you want.

I am running
Code:
find "directory" -type f -name "*.ext" -mmin -1440 -ls | sed -s ^"directory"

trying to remove the full filepath. The result I am wanting is a headed set of files that have been modified in the last 24h only showing modified by , time/date and the file.

I can't remove a full filepath as I don't get anything out of your above command. Please check the syntax.
In order to make the thread more efficient, don't scenically describe the result, but post input and output as you have / want it, line by line, character by character, trimmed but meaningful.

I am running:
Code:
 
 find "directory" -type f -name "*.exe" -mmin -1440 -ls

And getting the output:
Code:
-rwxrw-r--    10    root   root  2048    Sep 18 11:11 afile.exe

I would like the output:
Code:
Owner name   file size    time of last Modification   directory
root              2048                   Jan 13 07:11              afile.exe

Would piping your find results through this
Code:
awk -v OFS="\t" '
BEGIN   {print "Owner name   file size    time of last Modification   directory"
        }
        {print $3, $5, $6 " " $7 " " $8, $9
        }
'
Owner name   file size    time of last Modification   directory
root	2048	Sep 18 11:11	afile.exe

come close to what you need? Or do you REALLY need Sep 18 11:11 converted to Jan 13 07:11 as in your sample output?
