Copy files by date range?

[eithk99999]

I need a VBScript that copies files from a network share to an alternate network share based on strict date ranges i.e. October 16th to January 16th (regardless of year).

The script needs to run silently and automatically (I can use the built in scheduler to to make it run.

Right now I have a simply xcopy script that copies all files in the source folder to the new folder (both folders must keep the same name). Between each running of the script the destination folder is emptied (and the source folder keeps being added to) so I cannot just copy everything as only the required date range can be used in the destination folder.

Anyone have anything that might help.

p.s. I did find this

http://webscripts.softpedia.com/script/Snippets/Batch-Copy-with-Date-Range-25968.html

but was unable to download it as it is no longer available.

All help very much appreciated as I am VB newbie

Will xcopy /D not do what you need?
xcopy /?
