17 posts and no solution. Hmmm, I suggest a compromise. The script below uses Win98 BATCH language. It produces the correct RESULT in WinXP but not Win98. After dissecting the code to see how it runs, you should be able to produce the correct result in Win98.

Code: [Select]@echo off
ver | date > temp.bat
echo set dt=%%5>the.bat
call temp.bat
del temp.bat
del the.bat
echo %dt%

Hint: 3 changes to the code must be made to run correctly in Win98.

Good luck. An excellent solution, Sidewinder!
I got it to work on my old computer .
