Hi Admins

I have a scripting question

I have a dir in which files with extension is residing and the range of extension is between (00001 to 99999) i-e for generation of the files.

I need a script which user will input

If input is blank the latest current or highest no. file should be displayed

If input is 1-30 it should to automatically display the file of that that generation say if input is 10 then from the highest no 10 should minuses and whatever no comes that file should be displayed

Can somebody give some code how to achieve this ..

Thanks
