take a look at "find".
find / -mtime '....' shoud do the trick.
You could redirect the output to a file, and then use tar to backup, reading the
input files from the file.

Subject: [Solaris-Users] Scripting - Manipulating Dates
HI
I want to take the backup of some files on a regular basis through a
script. For that to happen I want yesterdays date.
I want to take the backup today of yesterdays files. Is there a way by which I
can manipulate date so that I can do my task.
Waiting for a reply
Manesh
