Single step through the lines and look at the values in the Watch List

Are you getting any files found?
What is the value of oldname_count?

Have you set the value of %dir1% earlier in the script in GetFileList> ?

when the error popped up, I click "ok" and the script delete one file and if I keep clicking OK, then eventually all the file in the directory got deleted as it supposed to.
Is there an other command in mscheduler to delete file older than "certain" date instead of that command?

And how come under my name there's a title "Pro scripter"

I am not a programer by any definition

Another way is to get the file date with the FileDate command and then compare that date with today's date. Best way to do that is with VBScript's DateDiff command which you can use to determine how many days are between the two dates.

The "Pro Scripter" label is just based on the number of posts. Just a bit of fun
