Tom, Here's an example I use to delete files:
'PIPE Command LISTFILE * * X (NOH', '| sort 1.8 D', '| drop 35', '| Specs /ERASE/ 1 w1-3 nw /(TYPE/ nw', '| Command ', '| count lines', '| specs /'time()'/ 1 w1 nw /monwrite file(s) deleted/ nw', '| >>' logfile It will list all files from filemode X, sorts them newest first, then dro p the 35 most recent versions and erase the rest. The command will write a record into a logfile that states how much files are deleted. The trick for ERASE, use option TYPE to see the filenames that are deleted. In my case I only use the records from ERASE to count the number of deleted files. Regards, Berry.
