Delete previous backup in append mode sql 2000

i have set backup of userdatabases in append mode every day
its possible to remove backups of a previous date using a stored
procedure
writing the backup daily to hdd
whats the better option so that the file size is maintained ,can only
use append mode
as i might want to restore to 2/ 3 days previous data
