This is wired to process today's XLS files. You can alter the file type in the 3rd FOR loop and test it. If that seems OK we can hammer out the time part.

=============================
@echo off > %TEMP%\#-# & setLocal EnableDelayedExpansion

for /f "tokens=* delims= " %%a in ('dir/b/s %TEMP%\#-#') do (
set mydate=%%~Ta
)

for /f "tokens=1 delims= " %%a in ("!mydate!") do (
set today=%%a
)

for /f "tokens=* delims= " %%a in ('dir/b/a-d *.xls') do (
set TD=%%~Ta
for /f "tokens=1 delims= " %%a in ("!TD!") do (
set filedate=%%a
)
if !filedate! equ !today! echo process %%a
)


=====================================
