RE: Delete archived redo logs

Hi,
In the NT Resource kit there is a utility called FORFILES. I have also seen free versions on some web sites.

C:\>forfiles /?
Batch processing of files in a directory or tree. emmanubo_at_microsoft.com

FORFILES [-pPath] [-mSearch Mask] [-ccommand] [-dDDMMYY] [-s] [-?]

  -pPath            Path where to start searching
  -mSearch Mask     Search files according to <Search Mask>
  -cCommand         Command to execute on each file(s)
  -dDDMMYY          Select file with date>=DDMMYY
  -v                Verbose mode
  -s                Recurse into sub-directories
  -?                Display this usage screen

The following variables can be used in Command : @FILE, @PATH, @RELPATH

Default : <Directory : .> <Search Mask : *.*> <Command : "CMD /C Echo @FILE">
Example : FORFILES -pc:\ -s -m*.BAT -c"CMD /C Echo @FILE is a batch file"
