mkdir with date
echo off @REM Seamonkey's quick date batch (MMDDYYYY format) @REM Setups %date variable @REM First parses month, day, and year into mm , dd, yyyy formats and then combines to be MMDDYYYY FOR /F "TOKENS=1* DELIMS= " %%A IN ('DATE/T') DO SET CDATE=%%B FOR /F "TOKENS=1,2 eol=/ DELIMS=/ " %%A IN ('DATE/T') DO SET mm=%%B FOR /F "TOKENS=1,2 DELIMS=/ eol=/" %%A IN ('echo %CDATE%') DO SET dd=% %B FOR /F "TOKENS=2,3 DELIMS=/ " %%A IN ('echo %CDATE%') DO SET yyyy=%%B SET date=%yyyy%%mm%%dd% echo %date% mkdir BEMRX-%date% cd BEMRX-%date% mkdir Source mkdir CD but I would to make the directory name the date then -BEMRX instead of the way it is. When I try this mkdir %date%-BEMRX that makes two directories(one the date and one -BEMRX). Is there a way to make that the name of the one directory? Thanks, Tom This line works fine for me:
mkdir %date%-BEMRX it creates a single directory named "20070315-BEMRX". What is the format of your %date%, is it the same as mine (YYYYMMDD)? Also, %date% is a dynamic built-in variable. To avoid breaking other scripts, you might want to use "SetLocal" in your script or use a different variable name: SET folderdate=%yyyy%%mm%%dd% echo %folderdate% mkdir %folderdate%-BEMRX <tom.henrick***@gmail.com> wrote in message Show quote news:1173967609.464689.23930@d57g2000hsg.googlegroups.com... > This script works > > echo off > @REM Seamonkey's quick date batch (MMDDYYYY format) > @REM Setups %date variable > @REM First parses month, day, and year into mm , dd, yyyy formats and > then combines to be MMDDYYYY > > FOR /F "TOKENS=1* DELIMS= " %%A IN ('DATE/T') DO SET CDATE=%%B > FOR /F "TOKENS=1,2 eol=/ DELIMS=/ " %%A IN ('DATE/T') DO SET mm=%%B > FOR /F "TOKENS=1,2 DELIMS=/ eol=/" %%A IN ('echo %CDATE%') DO SET dd=% > %B > FOR /F "TOKENS=2,3 DELIMS=/ " %%A IN ('echo %CDATE%') DO SET yyyy=%%B > SET date=%yyyy%%mm%%dd% > > echo %date% > > mkdir BEMRX-%date% > cd BEMRX-%date% > mkdir Source > mkdir CD > > but I would to make the directory name the date then -BEMRX instead of > the way it is.

Is there a >way to make that the name of the one >directory? echo %date%-BEMRX and you should see what's going on.) BUT, why so complicated? This does the same: mkdir %date:/=%-BEMRX (This works from CMD's command line; CMD requires different number of %-signs in batch files; I forget exactly how - never use it.) echo %date:/=% returns "Fri 03162007" for me, how do you remove the first 4
letters and still remove the /'s? I tried adding "~4" after the colon but couldn't get the output I was looking for. example %date:~4% returns "03/16/2007", but I cannot find a way to also include the /= to remove the /'s, any ideas? I suppose I could just do it in two steps using a temporary variable but It'd be nice to not have to. note: "~x,y" skips x characters and grabs y characters, if ",y" is not specified, returns all remaining characters Show quote "Michael Bednarek" <ROT13***@gtz.pbz.nh> wrote in message news:k48kv2p7jd6f2mg2pgpv3fqg08ab7qkbdu@4ax.com... > On 15 Mar 2007 07:06:49 -0700, tom.henricksen@... wrote in > microsoft.public.windows.server.scripting: > >>This script works >> >>echo off >>@REM Seamonkey's quick date batch (MMDDYYYY format) >>@REM Setups %date variable >>@REM First parses month, day, and year into mm , dd, yyyy formats and >>then combines to be MMDDYYYY >> >>FOR /F "TOKENS=1* DELIMS= " %%A IN ('DATE/T') DO SET CDATE=%%B >>FOR /F "TOKENS=1,2 eol=/ DELIMS=/ " %%A IN ('DATE/T') DO SET mm=%%B >>FOR /F "TOKENS=1,2 DELIMS=/ eol=/" %%A IN ('echo %CDATE%') DO SET dd=% >>%B >>FOR /F "TOKENS=2,3 DELIMS=/ " %%A IN ('echo %CDATE%') DO SET yyyy=%%B >>SET date=%yyyy%%mm%%dd% >> >>echo %date% >> >>mkdir BEMRX-%date% >>cd BEMRX-%date% >>mkdir Source >>mkdir CD >> >>but I would to make the directory name the date then -BEMRX instead of >>the way it is.

I suppose one could use a command line tool (REG.EXE) to manipulate the registry on the fly to specify a suitable format; this usually fails because a direct registry manipulation is not broadcast to other applications. The only truly generic method needs a language which provides access to the elements which constitute a date; VBS/JS/4NT spring to mind.  |
