unloading sql query to file
In
unload to
"/usr/home/data.012202"

I wish to use a date variable as in
unload to
"/usr/home/data.`date`" for the file
is that possible in a query to do, or will i need to add a mv command after the query to do it.
I tried backquotes, [ ], and () on `date` but didn't seem to work

Thanks in advance for your help

Have you tried using the mv statement after it's sent to file? If it works for you, then that might just be the (at least) a temporary fix... Can you post the relevant portions of the code?

It is a question of convenience, on automating similar queries.
looks like the renaming of file after it is send, will have to do for now. until we figure something out.

thanks
