asked on

need a hierarchical date last mod on Windows

I have a directory tree that goes 5-6 levels deep with folders containing a couple of hundred files each.  In short, below the top level folder I may have 100,000 files.

This is Windows 2003.

I need to find the age of the youngest file under this hierarchy.  In other words the date of the most recent file.

How can I do this and get a simple answer that shows on the same screen as the command window where I issue the command?  In other words, I don't want to actually get the date on all these and throw them into Excel and sort.

These machines don't have perl or anything non-Windows.
