The following was taken from a message posted by Bat Lang in the BATPOWER
echo.
ST> Could someone please point out to me how to rename my file extensions
ST> to the Julian date. Such as having my batch automatically rename my
ST> daily backup from backup.arj to backup.168 for todays date.
The following can be found through BFDS, which will satisfy the above need.
JULIAN2.ZIP 5582 01-04-95 JULIAN returns the day of year(Julian)
using the system date, and inserts it into the
environment Variable 'JULIAN'.
So your batch file would run JULIAN, then there is a ENVAR called JULIAN
whose value is the current Julian date. Then you would follow that with
a statement like: Rename backup.ARJ *.%julian%. So your batch file
would only *need* to have these two lines:
Julian
ren backup.arj *.%julian%
