    Try downloading the File Properties task from http://www.pragmaticworks.com/FilePropertiesTask.htm which will get you the file details to calulate the latest file.

    Can you use a script task?

    If so, you can put the filename into a variable and then process it.

    There may be an easier way, but script will work for sure.
