To get files from this month, use:
$date = Get-Date -Format M-1-y
or to get files from the last 31 days use:
$date = (Get-Date).AddDays(-31).ToString('M-d-y')
Then call xcopy like:
xcopy "L:28*.zip" $a /I /D:$date

To get files from this month, use:
$date = Get-Date -Format M-1-y
or to get files from the last 31 days use:
$date = (Get-Date).AddDays(-31).ToString('M-d-y')
Then call xcopy like:
xcopy "L:28*.zip" $a /I /D:$date
