date and time as filename?

[gcue]

is it possible to name a filename with the current date and time? (if possible including seconds.)

_Date_Time_GetSystemTime()

_Date_Time_GetSystemTime()

format it with / and : (so cant use those chars in a filename)

any ideas?

$filename = @YEAR & @MON & @MDAY & @HOUR & @MIN & @SEC & ".txt"

[SmOke_N]

$filename = @YEAR & @MON & @MDAY & @HOUR & @MIN & @SEC & ".txt"

That's how I do it personally...

perfect!!

too bad we cant do 12hour format

$filename = @YEAR & @MON & @MDAY & @HOUR & @MIN & @SEC & ".txt"

what made you conclude that ?

a single If..Then .. Else ... Endif should solve that for you and I am sure you are able to figure it out yourself

[gcue]

you mean like this?

$filename = @HOUR & "." & @MIN & "." & @SEC & "_" & @MON & "-" & @MDAY & "-" & @YEAR

If @HOUR="13" Then

@HOUR="01"

EndIf

If @HOUR="14" Then

@HOUR="02"

EndIf

If @HOUR="15" Then

@HOUR="03"

EndIf

etc.... ???

[weaponx]

$filename = @YEAR & @MON & @MDAY & twelvehour(@HOUR) & @MIN & @SEC & ".txt"
Func twelvehour($hour)
    If $hour >= 12 Then $hour -= 12
    Return StringFormat("%02i", $hour)
EndFunc
MsgBox(0,"",$filename)
