The following script should do the trick:
#!/bin/sh
# myfind.sh
# usage: myfind.sh <directory> <filename prefix>
# e.g. myfind /dir/subdir MyFile.txt
echo "$2"
for FILE in `find $1 -type f -name "$2*" | egrep -v ".old$"`
do
SIZE=`wc -l $FILE | awk '{print $1;}'`
DIRNAME=`dirname $FILE`
BASENAME=`basename $FILE`
echo "$DIRNAME $BASENAME $SIZE "
done
HTH & kind regards
