I've been wanting a way to scan all the user files on our Windows servers and identify all the files that haven't been used in, say 2 years, and move them to an archive folder so that I don't have to back this stuff up every night. Will BackupExec (or other Veritas/Symantec) do this?

With Backup Exec to perform something close to what you need, you have the Archive option. You would make your selections for backup and in advanced file selections, specify 'Files not accessed in xx days'. This would result in the files being backed up then deleted from the original location...be careful in what you select for backup with this method... don't want to delete the wrong files.
