I wish to invest this money in your country. I also plead you help me on the investment part of the business; you have a free hand of operation.

I will like you to send me your telephone number,I will send you the name of the security firm for you to open contact with them for withdrawal of the consignment to move it to your country for investment.

The money is in the position of a security company as a family treasure.

A legal process will take place to ensure mutual transfer.
All effort made to the successful of this transaction will highly be appreciated. I hope to get a favourable reply in due curse.

We can negotiate on the terms of assistance.

Ms Danga's kind offer aside, you can get the file list for a directory as follows

@a = <C:/path/to/file>;

Then...

for each instance of $a[..] you can get the date last modified as follows

open(HANDLE, $a[..]);

my $date = localtime( (stat HANDLE)[9] );

close HANDLE;

So just whack that in a for loop and find the last modified

the [9] is from this list

0 dev device number of filesystem
1 ino inode number
2 mode file mode (type and permissions)
3 nlink number of (hard) links to the file
4 uid numeric user ID of file's owner
5 gid numeric group ID of file's owner
6 rdev the device identifier (special files only)
7 size total size of file, in bytes
8 atime last access time since the epoch
9 mtime last modify time since the epoch
10 ctime inode change time (NOT creation time!) since the epoch
11 blksize preferred block size for file system I/O
12 blocks actual number of blocks allocated
