    Hi Jeff,

    $SOURCE is something like /mnt/data/

    I played around -depth and the option that only copy the wanted files is "-mindepth 2". What happens now is that "find $SOURCE -mindepth 2 -mtime -15 -exec mv {} $DEST \;" copies the files but not the folders that contains such files.

    Probably you are right and should write more code than a simply find command

    Thanks!

      $tree . -D
