1.	Solve : create a batch file with date as folder name?
Answer» Hey, i have CREATED a batch file which copy the data of one folder into another. But after copying i want to give the particular date as a folder name. I am not able to. Please give your suggestions. This is my code. echo off :: variables echo Backing up file set /P source=Enter source folder: set /P destination=Enter Destination folder: set listfile=xcopy /L set xcopy=xcopy /S/E/V/Q/F/H %listfile% %source% %destination% echo files will be copy press enter to proceed pause %xcopy% %source% %destination% %date% pauseMultipost: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/27012028/create-a-batch-file-with-date-as-folder-name Does it MATTER to anyone that PEOPLE multipost their questions? i wanted my ans. this the reason why i have POSTED over here also. sorryThe DATE /T command and the %DATE% variable all output with slashes. So you will need to USE a FOR /F command to strip out the day of the week and the slashes depending on what your DATE format is. You would then use the MD command to create a new directory for the destination.
