This is correct. The syntax allows only date granularity, not date/time
granularity.

From 'help store parms'

moddate or accdate  Instructs STORE to store only selected files.  A
                    moddate value (indicated by >=, greater than or
                    equal to) limits the STORE to files that were
                    modified on or after the specified date.

                    An accdate value (indicated by <=, less than or
                    equal to) limits the STORE to those files that
                    were accessed on or before a particular date.

                    The date is expressed in the form mm/dd/yy[yy].
                    The year may be expressed in two or four digits
                    (for example, 87 or 1987).


I guess the world's best operating system isn't as good as it could be :-)

Maybe you could write a replacement for store that would have date/time granularity
and also include the cool encryption routines you have written...
