Folder Filter Search on date

Help & Support
1

Hi, I'd like to be able to filter a folder structure so I can see files older than a certain date and be able to get totals for numbers and size of files on a per folder basis. Failing that a search for the same would be great. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I need to be able to select and move them to reduce backup tape usage. Thanks

To search for items restricted by date, open Tools -> Find Panel and then (in Simple mode) use the Date drop-down.

(In the Find Panel's Advanced mode, you can add a Date clause to the filter.)

Thanks, is there a way of getting DO to provide totals for the items it finds? I'd like to be able to create a filter for a folder structure that will apply all the way down and give me the totals. Maybe I'm just being greedy!

You can select-all and look in the status bar to see the counts.

Apart from that I can't think of other ways to get filtered counts for items below folders.

OK, that will do fine, thanks for your help.
