Hello,
I need a batch file to get the current date and time of my computer and put it in a text file every time I run it.But I need the most current date&time to replace the previous within the same text file, so that my file can have only one record, even if I run it multiple times.
I found this code:
echo %date% %time% >> log.txt
But this one just adds the next date under the previous one.
Your help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
Hi,
I need program or procedure to extract the Gregorian date and the equevelent Hijri date from windows to the text file for 10 years .
waiting for your response .
Close....
1) To clarify: The rename command is issued as a single line
2) The variable positions are not correct for English language WinXP but close enough to figure out what they should be.
Otherwise, great tip!!!
Is this a POS application ? I think you are looking for a file that's for yesterday - so if today is 02/24, you are looking for file name with "0223". Is it correct ?
Anyway, here is a biterscripting script.
# Script CheckYesterday.txt
var str file, date
# Get yesterday's date.
set $date = addtime(diff("-1000000"))
# Get only the mmdd part.
chex "8[" $date > null ; chex "4]" $date > null
# The file name will be "C:/somefolder/TRB0"+$date+".zip"
set $file = "C:/somefolder/TRB0"+$date+".zip"
# Check if file exists.
af $file
if ($fexists)
echo "File " $file " exists."
else
echo "File " $file " does not exist."
endif
Copy and paste this script into file "C:/Scripts/CheckYesterday.txt", change "C:/somefolder" to the coorect folder path, then execute this command in biterscripting each morning.
You can use the gettime() function in bierscripting to get the current date and time and rename files using that. For example, the following script will rename all files in folder "C:/folder" by appending a timestamp to file names.
# Script AppendTimestamp.txt
var str folder, list, file, extn, name
lf -n "*" $folder ($ftype=="f") > $list
while ($list <> "")
do
lex "1" $list > $file ; stex -p "^/^l[" $file > $name ; stex "[^.^l" $name > $extn
system rename ("\""+$file+"\"") ("\""+$name+"_"+gettime()+$extn+"\"")
done
To run the script, copy and paste the script into file C:/Scripts/AppendTimestamp.txt, then enter the following command in biterscripting
I am needing to create a batch file the will display a message on the screen each morning and let me know a certain file was created each night at my "day end"
Each night when my store closes, I have a file that is created and zipped up to a certain directory with the name TRB00222.zip
TRB00221.zip
TRB00220.zip
ect...
I have created a batch file to screen pop notepad and give me a message with the current date that the file exist.
But what I dont know how to do is put in the "if exits" statement based the "modified" date of the file.
Guys can anyone help me to build a batch file that will captured the date and time and will output as the title in .txt format. and will recreate another text file any time I ran the batch file.
Example output:
072810_0528H.txt - first run batch file
072810_0529H.txt - second run of batch file
You can use this..
REM mmddyyyy, just switch it around if you want the yyyy to be the first
For /F "tokens=2-4 delims=/ " %%a in ("%DATE%") DO SET MDY=%%a%%b%%c
REM hhdd, if you need the secs you can add the 3rd token
FOR /F "tokens=1,2 delims=:" %%d in ("%TIME%") DO SET ORAS=%%d%%e
REM then just output it to a file each time
echo > %MDY%.%ORAS%
REM or you can run a command and output it and add an ext.
whatever cmd > %MDY%.%ORAS%.TXT
This is the code to display current date and time, tab delimited:
@echo off
echo/|set /p =%date% >datetimelog.txt
time/t>>datetimelog.txt
@echo off & setlocal EnableDelayedExpansion
set TAB=
set SPACE=
for /f "delims=" %%i in (datetimelog.txt) do (
set row=
set count=0
for %%j in (%%i) do (
set /A count=!count!+1
set char=%TAB%
if !count!==3 set char=%SPACE%
set row=!row!%%j!char!
)
set row=!row:~0,-1!
echo.!row! > datetimelog.txt
)
I was wondering if you gurus can give me some direction...
I run a Specials Menu at a restaurant using powerpoint. There are two specials files (lunch.pps and dinner.pps)
When this system reboots, I want a batch file to determine which powerpoint file to open based on what time it is.
For instance, if it's anywhere between 11am and 3pm, open the lunch file. If its any other time, run the dinner.pps file. Make sense?
