The belt and braces method is to not let shell see the list
Assuming that you want to remove qfr* (not dfr*) and that the directory does not contain subdirectories containing files which you do not want do delete. if your "find" does not have "-print", then omit the parameter.
Try with the "echo" in first to check that the list of commands is suitable.
The "-mtime +5" parameter is designed to avoid deleting anything created in the last 5 days.

sfind
sfind(1) ShapeTools sfind(1)NAME
sfind - shapeTools RMS recursively descend a system hierarchy
SYNOPSIS
sfind [-subs | -comp] directory [command]
DESCRIPTION
Sfind recursively descends the system hierarchy of a software system managed by the shapeTools Release Management System (shapeTools RMS).
Sfind starts it's search from directory downwards. According to the shapeTools RMS conventions, directory must contain a Shapefile which
lists the subsystems in the variable SUBSYSTEMS and the subsystem components in the variable COMPONENTS. Each subsystem is visited.
If no command is specified, sfind echoes the pathnames of the subsystems it finds, or, if the option -comp is given, the pathnames of the
components of each subsystem.
When a command is given, it is executed in the directory of each subsystem. The string ``{}'' in command is replaced by the pathname of
the subsystem or component.
OPTIONS -subs command is invoked for each subsystem. This is the default. ``{}'' in command is replaced by the pathname of the subsystem.
-comp command is invoked for each component. ``{}'' in command is replaced by the pathname of the component.
EXAMPLES
List all system components:
sfind -comp ~/development
Show the pathnames of all versionfiles:
sfind ~/development echo -n {}/ ; shape -echo VERSIONFILE
Echo identification of the last release of each subsystem:
sfind ~/development vl -last -format
'$__lastrelease$\n'
`shape -echo VERSIONFILE`
Necessary quoting to echo a pair of curly braces:
sfind ~/development echo two \{\} braces
SEE ALSO find(1), sh(1), shape(1), shape_RMS(1), shape_tmpl(7)CAVEATS
Quoting of shell meta characters can be tough.
BUGS
The program is slow because shape(1) is called at least once for each subsystem.
When sfind is interrupted, usually shape(1) displays the message ``shape - interrupted'', which may be confusing.
