Thank you RudiC for the response. I tried the suggested code but getting the error message below. Also, "la" is not a recognizable command hence changed it to "ls -1". I am using Sun Solaris. Sorry for not mentioning it earlier.
Also, the date which I trying to replace is the create date of the file and not the sysdate.

awk: illegal statement near line 4

I need to create a file through a c-shell script which contains only the date and time that the file was created. Does anyone know a simple way to do this?
Thank you,
