Thanks

Code:
find . ! -name . -prune -type f -mtime +10 | grep './[^.]*$'

works fine !

Can you tell me the use of "!" in find . ! -name . ?

and why replacing find . by th real path it doesn't work

Code:
find /users/notes01 ! -name . -prune -type f -mtime +10 | grep './[^.]*$'

regards
Christian
