You will need to use C or perl or or ruby -- some language. bash, ksh, nawk and other standard utilities that come with Solaris do not "do dates" like the GNU coretuils do.
So if someone posts an example using "date" or "awk" it will not work unless you have the GNU coreutils installed.
Here is a C example, someone else may post a perl example.
/usr/sfw/bin/gcc (C compiler) is part of the standard Solaris 10 && 11 install

Any ideas.
Thanks
