I have another doubt it the same script, I need to rename file which iam getting from SFTP, i am not sure the file name which iam getting so iam using "*" but as example iam sending this "ren Test*.txt Test123.txt"

Can you tell me how to rename with date format something like test123[DDMMYYYY][time].

Nice tip ilan, I never knew you could do that kind of substitution in cmd.exe... do you know where that is documented because I can't see it anywhere?

Hi Annihilannic,

I always used this substitution in my scripts to write into error logs; that way I can nail down exactly... what time a particular occured. I got it somewhere online a long back... :-)

Grab a copy of PERL from activestate. It is quite easy to automate when you have a real language to work with.
