Hi All, We are currently using the foundation version of SharePoint (plan to move to server in the coming months) and we have a library where we scan manifest documents into, there is no need to hold these documents for any longer than 2 months, and i am wondering what would be the easiest way to delete the documents. I have tried SharePoint Designer but i can’t figure out how to identify that the documents are 2 months old?? If anyone has any pointers it would be greatly appreciated.

I don't believe Foundation will include Records Management Retention policies, which allows you to specify the window of time before an item is queued for deletion. You should be able to use the DateDiff function within a calculated column to work out dates for workflows. Please see if this is any use: - http://blogs.sharepointace.com/post/SharePoint-List-Calculated-Column-Calculate-Business-Days.aspxSteven Andrews | SharePoint Professional | http://www.twitter.com/backpackerd00d | https://baron72.wordpress.com/

Which version of sharepoint are you using? You say "foundation" but that's an SP 2010 product. If you're using foundation, you could create a view on the library that filters out documents that are less than 2 months old and then batch delete the rest. If you're using WSS 3.0 then you could use windows explorer and sort by create date and delete the ones you want to delete. These are both manual processes. To automate this, you need to do some coding.--Paul Galvin, BrightStarr Microsoft MVP - SharePoint Blogging @ http://www.mstechblogs.com/paul Twitter @ http://www.twitter.com/pagalvin
