hyperterminal and notepad

[Guest]

is there any way I can add date and time to ascii data as it comes in on the
hyperterminal, or add it to the .txt document when it is linked to
hyperterminal. I know you can add a line to the .txt document ".doc" and this
wil add a date and time to the document each time it is opened, but this only
works if the document is opened by clicking on it. it does not seem to work
when the hyperterminal opens the document and saves the data to it at the end
of communications. please note that I am collecting data from an ethernet
connection, but i can change to serial if neccessary.

You could do something like

echo date | /Y >> datafile.txt

Or ask in the cmdprompt group for same.
