RE: Append date/time stamp to logfile name (NT 4.0)

Hello,
Not sure if this is what you're looking for but you can use the following in a batch file:

for /f "tokens=2-4 delims=-/ " %%i in ('date/t') do set filedate=%%k%%j%%i for /f "tokens=1-2 delims=: " %%i in ('time/t') do set filetime=%%i%%j ren logfile.log %filedate%%filetime%.txt

This assumes your NT date format is "yyyy-MM-dd" or "yyyy/MM/dd"and your time format is "HH:mm:ss" or "H:mm:ss" both of which are configurable in CONTROL PANEL --> REGIONAL SETTINGS.

HTH
