Hi, I'm trying to copy files from a directory where the last modified date is within 24hours of the current date. I'm using a wildcard in the filepath as it changes every day I'm using;

option explicit

dim fileSystem, folder, file
dim path 

path = "d:\x\logs"

Set fileSystem = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set folder = fileSystem.GetFolder(path)

for each file in folder.Files    


           If DateDiff("d", file.DateLastModified, Now) < 1 Then


   filesystem.CopyFile "d:\x\logs\apache_access_log-*", "d:\completed logs\"

        WScript.Echo file.Name & " last modified at " & file.DateLastModified
    end if
next

Unfortunately this seems to be copying all files, and not just the recently modified ones. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

many thanks

Martin.
