add this to the top of your batch file.
to set file name to date- %xdate%.log
to set file name to time- %xtime%.log
to set file name to time and date- %xtime%%xdate%.log
ex.date= 03-23-2005.log
ex.time= 16.30.log
ex.time & date= 16.30 03-23-2005.log

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
@echo off
setlocal
for /f "tokens=2-4 delims=/ " %%a in (
'date /t'
) do set xdate=%%a-%%b-%%c
for /f "tokens=5-6 delims=:. " %%a in (
'echo/^|time^|find "current"'
) do set xtime=%%a.%%b
cl
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Thanks for the reply from Royce.

Can you please advise me my file is going to created by the time daily 1.00
am.
my file location is: F:\Logs\WWWLogs\W3SVC1\ex030527.LOG.

I am going to move this file from here to another location using XCOPY.

What points should i take care of, thanks for all.

John

john not exactly sure what your question is.... so your going to move the
file from one location to another using xcopy? why couldnt you just make the
log in the correct location the first time... im not very clear on all of
this. is there something that im missing?
