How can I use the -f and -d commands for selecting files and directories from cmd.exe ?
Your question is not very excaclty but maybe you should try this from a cmd.exe shell and see the output.

for /f "usebackq delims=*" %a in (`dir /b /a-d /od %systemroot%\system32\*.dll`) do @echo %a

if you want to use it in a batch file then it is
for /f "usebackq delims=*" %%a in (`dir /b /a-d /od %systemroot%\system32\*.dll`) do @echo %%a

This script will list you all dll files in your windows\system32 folder ordered by date and echoes it

Best regards
