passing date parameter in cronjob

Hi All,

I have a crontab entry for every 5 min running.

5 * * * * /tmp/scripts/ksh/CsVues_H.sh `date +%Y%m%d_%H` >> /tmp/scripts/ksh/Cronresult.log

and I am passing the date parameter. ( `date +%Y%m%d_%H` )

But the parameter values which i am expecting inside the script is somethinglike "20080910_12". But iam getting values like "Wed Sep 17 12:35:47 CEST 2008"

How can i convert the values like "20080910_12" ? (in AIX Machine)

Thanks and Regards
