Find a string in file 5 days ago

Hi,

I need to grep for a string "Color Yellow" in all log files dated 5 days back until today's date [Total of 5 days].

So, as today is 20 Dec i need to find in all logs from 16th dec to 20 dec.

Also, i need ls -ltre output for the files that have the "Collor Yellow" string.

Below is my OS:

SunOS mymac 5.10 Generic_148888-04 sun4v sparc SUNW,SPARC-Enterprise-T5220
