As for changing columns, if you don't have to do it in an editor, you can use awk instead. Awk was created for just this sort of task.
To delete files older than a certain time, first create a dummy file which represents that time.
Code:
touch -t 200607191013.22 compared_time
Then you can use this as a comparison value in the find command.
Code:
find . -not -newer compared_time -delete
Please try this code in a safe place before using it to really delete files (e.g. replace -delete with -print in the find command).
