Adding time to Filename

[2dkot]

Hi, all

I'm trying to add system time to file name. My target is creating some numbers of log files, and file's name must include time when script starts. I tried this:

$time = @MON & "." & @MDAY & "-" & @hour & ":" & @MIN
If FileExists ($FullPathFile) Then FileMove( $Path & "\ Logfile.txt", $Path & "\" & $time & " - Logfile.txt")

It doesn't work of course. So can I do this?

Thanks

Take out the colon, it's a character that can't be used in file names.

Take out the colon, it's a character that can't be used in file names.

My paths:

$Path = "C:\Documents and Settings\blabla\blabla\Logs"

$file = "Logfile.txt"

$FullPathFile = "C:\Documents and Settings\blabla\blabla\Logs\Logfile.txt"

I removed colon, but it is still:

Line 13 (File "C:\Documents and Settings\ivanovkv\Рабочий стол\NuggerwithoutIE.au3"):

If FileExists ($FullPathFile) Then FileMove( $Path & "\" $file, $Path & "\" & $time & " - Logfile.txt")

If FileExists ($FullPathFile) Then FileMove( ^ ERROR

Error: Error in expression.

FileMove( $Path & "\" $file, $Path & "\" & $time & " - Logfile.txt")

should be:

FileMove( $Path & "\" & $file, $Path & "\" & $time & " - Logfile.txt")

Create another 2 variables and make one = $Path & "\" $file and the other =$Path & "\" & $time & " - Logfile.txt" and visualize them in a msgbox to verify all is fine.That way you will quickly see where you do wrong.

This is how I did it -- may not be pretty but it works

$F_NAME = String("C:\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 5.5\webapps\ROOT\Logged_on_users1"&@YDAY&@MDAY&@HOUR&@MIN&".htm")

FileCopy("C:\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 5.5\webapps\ROOT\Logged_on_users.htm", $F_NAME,1)

$Path = "C:\Documents and Settings\blabla\blabla\Logs"

$file = "Logfile.txt"

$FullPathFile = "C:\Documents and Settings\blabla\blabla\Logs\Logfile.txt"

If FileExists ($FullPathFile) Then FileMove( ^ ERROR

Error: Error in expression.

Because there is an error

If FileExists ($FullPathFile) Then FileMove( $Path & "\" $file, $Path & "\" & $time & " - Logfile.txt")

Should be

If FileExists ($FullPathFile) Then FileMove( $Path & "\" & $file, $Path & "\" & $time & " - Logfile.txt")

Of course an easier way to do this would be

$time = @MON & "_" & @MDAY & "_" & @hour & "_" & @MIN
$Path = "C:\Documents and Settings\blabla\blabla\Logs\"
$file = "Logfile.txt"
$FullPathFile = $Path & $File
$sFile = $Path & $Time & " - " & $File

If FileExists ($FullPathFile) Then FileMove($FullPathFile, $sFile)

Thanks a lot!!!

Really appreciate your advises!
