hello i have a form from which i export the schema that owns my application,
i just need something to generate a different export file name each time that exp is invoked from within the form,
i can use a sequence but is there a way to include the sysdate plus the timestamp in the export file name?
thanks

What operating system do you use? If it is (one of) MS Windows versions, you might find a way call this DOS batch script; I'm not the author - I *think* I saved it from OraFAQ forum, but can't tell for sure. I apologize to the original author for not mentioning his/her name.

@echo off
setlocal
for /f "tokens=2" %%i in ("%date:/=_%") do set vdate=%%i
for /f "tokens=1,2 delims=:" %%i in ("%time: =%") do set vdate=%vdate%_%%i%%j
c:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\bin\exp.exe userid=scott/tiger@orcl file=e:\syr%vdate%.dmp owner=scott
endlocal
echo on

When executed:

c:\> test.bat
c:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\bin\exp.exe userid=scott/tiger@orcl
 file=e:\syr07_19_2006_803.dmp owner=scott
