Re: Add Date and time to filename

The more I play with the format operator ( -f ) the more I love it. You can generate your filename like this:

PS> $date = Get-Date
PS> $filename
PS> $filename = "FileName{0}{1:d2}{2:d2}-{3:d2}{4:d2}" -f $date.year,$date.month,$date.day,$date.hour,$date.minute
PS> $FileName
FileName20070511-1035

"get-help about_operators" has a little bit on the subject.

^_^ ~Clint

$filename = "FileName{0}{1:d2}{2:d2}-{3:d2}{4:d2}" -f $date.year,$date.month,$date.day,$date.hour,$date.minute
