get-childitem k:\groups -force -recurse |? {$_.CreationTime.ToString() -match
"^2010-06-2[0-9]" } | format-table creationtime,length,fullname -auto
Or select-string.
No need to drop to findstr.

Subject: Re: Finding a huge file dump from June...
I tested this against a small directory, and am now running this:
PS K:\> get-childitem k:\groups -force -recurse | format-table
creationtime,length,fullname -auto | findstr ^2010-06-2 | findstr /v
^2010-06-20 | findstr /v ^2010-06-21 | findstr /v ^2010-06-22 | findstr /v
^2010-06-23 | findstr /v 2010-06-27 | findstr /v
^2010-06-28 | findstr /v ^2010-06-29 > out.txt
Your hint with 'fullname' was the last piece of the puzzle.
I really need to start reading my powershell books - putting them underneath my
pillow just isn't cutting it...
Need. More. Time.
