Patchworks Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 (edited) I've looked thru the forums and found lots of examples with file dates but not comparing a filedate to the system date. Dates are very funny with all the weird formatting and I can't seem to find a way to do it! I'm looking for how many hours old the file is. Can someone give me a hand please! Func FileHowOldHours( $cFile ) Local $TempFileDate = FileGetTime( $cFile , 0 ) Local $Date = @MON & "/" & @MDAY & "/" & @YEAR Local $JobLastRun = $TempFileDate[1] & "/" & $TempFileDate[2] & "/" & $TempFileDate[0] Return _DateDiff("h", $JobLastRun, $Date) EndFunc Edited September 5, 2011 by Patchworks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patchworks Posted September 5, 2011 Author Share Posted September 5, 2011 Ok, 2nd attempt here!!! Func LogFileAgeInHours( $cLogFile ) Local $cFileDate = FileGetTime( $cLogFile , 0 ) Return _DateDiff("h", $cFileDate , _NowDate()) EndFunc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
somdcomputerguy Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 You weren't including the time in the $Date variable. Look at this code, modify it to your needs. Note that I used 's' (seconds) in the _DateDiff function, that was just for my testing. #include <Date.au3> Local $TempFileDate = FileGetTime( @ScriptName, 0 ) Local $JobLastRun = $TempFileDate[0] & "/" & $TempFileDate[1] & "/" & $TempFileDate[2] & " " & $TempFileDate[3] & ":" & $TempFileDate[4] & ":" & $TempFileDate[5] MsgBox(0, '', _NowCalc() & @CRLF & $JobLastRun & @CRLF & _DateDiff("s", $JobLastRun, _NowCalc())) - Bruce /*somdcomputerguy */ If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.

Here is what I ended up with. Func LogFileAgeInHours( $cLogFile ) Local $cFileDate = FileGetTime( $cLogFile , 0 ) ;Get the Last Modified date and time Return _DateDiff("h", $cFileDate[0] & "/" & $cFileDate[1] & "/" & $cFileDate[2] & " " & $cFileDate[3] & ":" & $cFileDate[4] & ":" & $cFileDate[5] , _NowCalc()) EndFunc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
