Hi can anyone helpme out in writing a batch file to delete archived log files.
The batch file should delete the files in those folders that meet the criteria(files older than 3 months)and if all the files in the folder are deleted then the folder itself should be deleted.

Read the manual page for 'find'
Look specifically at the -mtime option.

A "batch" file, as in a windows script, or a unix shell script. If the first option, then you asking in the wrong forum.
