   Ammammata to All   
   select the newest file in a folder   
   27 May 21 07:27:32   
   
   From: ammammata@tiscalinet.it   
      
   I'd like to locate the newest file in a backup folder (through a network   
   path like \\192.168.1.4\backup\server\data), to copy it locally and manage,   
   packing and sending to a remote FTP   
      
   file names are increasing (like yyyymmdd-hhmmss), so if I sort the content,   
   the newest could be the first or the last   
      
   I'd like to do this without too many external tools, using just a packer   
   like 7zip (or the internal ZIP command available in explorer)   
      
   the task will run on windows, version 7, until the pc will be upgraded to   
   10   
      
   thank you
