Several points

I'm going to assume linux/bash, but you should tell us your OS and shell.
This command gives you the file name:

Code:

cd /path/to/files/I/want
stat -c "%n %s" $( find . -type f -name 'Files*' ) > /tmp/file.txt

Now you can search the forums here for how to send an email attachment using /tmp/file.txt. The idea is to get you to be somewhat self-sufficient, able to help yourself.

We are here to help you, but not write code for you. Show us what you have tried once you locate the command you need. If you need help scheduling the new script we can help with that as well.
