is there a way to use dates instead of +/- days ?
Yes.
One Shell method is to create two reference files with "touch". One dated the last second before the range, and one dated the first second after the range. Then use "find".
Code:
find /dir -type f \( -newer start_file -a ! -newer end_file \) -print

There is a similar approach using reference files and the little-known "ksh" Conditional Expressions "-nt" and "-ot" but it tends to be slower than "find".
