Solve : How to add a date and time stamp within a log file?

Answer»

Gurus,

I need help adding a date/time stamp with a LOG file.

I have a batch file that executes every five minutes & appends the information in a log file.

EXAMPLE:
netstat >>c:\netstat.log

Active Connections

Proto Local ADDRESS Foreign Address State
TCP phhoracorp1:1037 corpjbapp2.phhcorp.com:36516 ESTABLISHED
TCP phhoracorp1:1046 corpjbweb2.phhcorp.com:48913 ESTABLISHED
TCP phhoracorp1:1051 corpcms1.phhcorp.com:47981 ESTABLISHED
TCP phhoracorp1:1053 corpcms1.phhcorp.com:47983 ESTABLISHED
TCP phhoracorp1:1061 phhlttablet1:3758 ESTABLISHED

Is there a way to add a date/timestamp within this file everytime the command executes?

This may work for you. Without mentioning a OS it's hard to tell:

Code: [SELECT]@echo off
for /f "delims=" %%i in ('netstat') do (
echo %date% %time% %%i >> c:\netstat.log
)

Good luck. 8-)That worked! Thanks a LOT!
