Hi,

Im finding some files form a specific path and den writing those files to another file as:

find /SYS/admin/data/xml -name '*.xml' -type f ! -newer file1 -print >>out.xml

and when im doing cat out.xml im getting like dis:

/SYS/admin/data/xml/XML_PO_IN_P200902121649264151_20090217095033_err_2.xml
/SYS/admin/data/xml/XML_PO_IN_P200902121649264151_20090220160804.xml
/SYS/admin/data/xml/XML_PO_IN_P200902171250212395_20090219185355_err_1.xml
/SYS/admin/data/xml/XML_PO_IN_P200902171735524504_20090219193334_err_1.xml
