Re: Writing Date and Time to a log file

Thanks for the help,

I was writing to an AS/400 share, it was throwing the error because the file name was more than 8 characters.

Thanks again,
Regards,
Bryan

Writing Date and Time to a log file

I want to keep a log of when ever a file is downloaded. I have this but it says incorrect function whenever I run it:

if exist D:\Test1\LOCK.TXT echo %DATE% %TIME% LOCKBOX.txt file found > LOCKBOX_LOG.txt

simple redirect not working

I'm just trying to output a filename to a file along with an FTP command. The desired result is this:
cd prod
get ISP_POD_111715_001.txt

This is what I have:

set buildDate=%DATE:~4,10%
set dateStr=ISP_POD_%buildDate:~0,2%%buildDate:~3,2%%buildDate:~8,2%_001.txt
%dateStr% > test.txt
