Thanks for you response Joe.

I am entering dates in "dd/mm/yyyy" format. I will convert date into YYYYMMDD(20110301)format and append the same to filename(Mbr). Pass date appended file name(Mbr_20110301*) to ZIP files function to list all the files in the directory. Once files are listed, zip them.
I have a code to increment dates between "2 weeks ago" and "current date'(pasted below) but i want to do it between start date and end date. Note that, Start date and end date are my parameters.

Code:

#!/bin/sh
startdate=`/bin/date --date="2 weeks ago" +%Y%m%d`
currentdate=`/bin/date +%Y%m%d`
 
foldate="$startdate"
until [ "$foldate" == "$currentdate" ]
do
  foldate=`/bin/date --date="$foldate 1 day" +%Y%m%d`
echo "foldate $foldate"
done
exit 0
