Thanks guys.
I got it to work. In MMDD_HHMM
for /f "tokens=2-6 delims=-/,.: " %%i in (
'echo exit^|cmd /q /k prompt $D $T') do (
set timestamp=%%i%%j_%%l%%m)

I was looking at that, but I didn't know how "basic" to keep it.

To get a numeric date and time on Windows 2000 and above, you can do
something like this:
set mydate=%date:~4,2%%date:~7,2%%date:~10,4%
set mytime=%time:~0,2%%time:~3,2%
echo %mydate% %mytime%
Run set /? for more information on this syntax.

It's because of the colons and slashes in the date/time. Can you live
without the date/time in the filename and just use the date/time stamp
on the file? Can you live with some random numbers?
%RAND% generates a number between 0 and 32767. (tested on Windows 2000
Pro only!)
If you Specified Folder has spaces in the name (like C:\Program Files)
enclose the name in quotes as shown in the example
SET RAND=%RANDOM%%RANDOM%.TXT
SET MYFILE=11myfile.ORA
REN %MYFILE% %MYFILE%%RAND%
MOVE %MYFILE%%RAND% "C:\Specified Folder"
Now, I also see that you fiddle with the filename, is that intentional
or just typing junk into the KB ???
Lastly, the correct format is %date% and %time% not $date (that would
work in Unix)

Hi guys,
Very basic issue here.
I get a file named: aut.edtout.dgzfex11.dcrd
I want to run a script that will take that file, rename it to
aut.home.dgzfex11.$date$time.txt (based on the time the script was run),
then copy it to the c:\Specified folder.
Basic, but I can't get the timestamp to go with the filename correctly.
:-)
