I have to create a couple of files within a directory structure.
Filename stays the same, but at the end of each file, the number appears.
Example:
File needs to be created within directory c:\temp
File Name will stay the same (testfile), but extension will increase, starting at 01 - example - testfile01, testfile02, ....
Depending on the day of the month, I will either create 10 files or I will create 26 files or 53, number can very.
Directory will look something like this:
The value I will change daily
Can anyone help me with a script for this please?
