    How can I automate this so that I dont have to edit the Script Task every day and specify the date of previous days files to include, in this case 20091208 ( c:\temp\out\*_20091208.xls ).

    Clive,

    Set up a variable to build the day.

    Set up a variable to build the filename, based on the previous variable.
