Obtain List of File Names in Clipboard by AS using search criteria

I’d like to run an applescript to query a directory for file names via search parameters from a database
E.G.
I would feed the desired path to search in, and dates to limit the range (or perhaps a name contains situation).
Result would be a text list of filenames in clipboard or temp path that I can feed into the database and display the files in container fields.
Tell finder to perform search on this folder with these parameters then save results in clipboard or a text file…
