Filters – Size and Date Filter Examples
Below are some sample outputs showing the effect of date and size filters and the Reverse Filter switch in Options-Filters on which files would be searched. Note the effect of enabling Reverse Filters, which causes the date and size settings to act as ‘include’ settings instead of ‘exclude’ settings. Also note the last example, which shows the use of two size settings to eliminate the smaller and larger files, leaving only the ‘Middle.txt’ file If more files were present you could also specify one or both of the date filters to list only files between 100 and 2000 bytes that were created between Jan 01, 2003 and Dec 31,2004, for example.
Also see Attribute Filter Examples for information on how the attribute switches in Options-Filters can be used.
Note: Use the Complex File Mask dialog to ‘filter’ files by file name or path.
