Hello Everyone,

I have a small problem. I have a batch that has the following:
-------Start---------

set zdate=%date:~4%
set zdate=%zdate:/=%
set ztime=%time::=%
set ztime=%ztime:~0,6%

copy c:\TestText.txt C:\%zdate%%ztime%.txt

-----------End-----------

The batch runs great except if it is ran before 10:00 and the time has a
single digit hour then it puts a SPACE between the date and time in the text
name. This causes problems and I need to find a way to either not have the
space or put a zero before the hour.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Daniel

Add this:

set ztime=%time :0=%
set ztime=%ztime:~0,6%

copy c:\TestText.txt C:\%zdate%%ztime%.txt

-----------End-----------

The batch runs great except if it is ran before 10:00 and the time has a

It'll do the latter.

:: See to it that days 1-9 will always have a leading zero
set dd_=0%dd_%
