Saving filename using current month year
Matthew Hirsch
Is it possible to save a file using current month current year?
I have a script we run a couple times a month and to save the file, we have to manually save it to add in the MMYY to the filename.
Commit Table Query1 As "M: \ZCR_Jan21.TAB" TYPE NATIVE Charset "WindowsLatin1" Interactive
I’d like to somehow change it to Commit Table Query1 As "M: \ZCR_”+ curdate()+”.tab”" TYPE NATIVE Charset "WindowsLatin1" Interactive. I know this is not right, but that is what I’d like to end up with if possible.
Regards,

Hello Matthew,
When I have major updates to my street centerlines I like to make backup copies prior to these updates and use a file name like “BAK_[YEAR]_[DAY]_[DATE]_[TIME]”.
I accomplish this with:
Dim d_today As Date,
sDate As String
Dim s_time As String
s_time = Time(24)
d_today=CurDate()
sDate = Year(d_today) &"-"& Right$("00" + Month(d_today), 2) &"-"& Right$("00" + Day(d_today), 2) &"_"& Left$(s_time,2) & Mid$(s_time,4,2) & Right$(s_time,2)
'**Formats the filename like YYYY-MM-DD_HHMMSS
Commit Table Streets As
'Save the streets backup table with the prefix "BAK_"
"[PATH TO MY BACKUP FILES]\BAK_" & sDate
TYPE NATIVE Charset "WindowsLatin1"
This is easily modified to the date format or level you’d like.
Hope that’s some help,
Dave
