Vista - Time:

I've written a simple script to look for files older than (x) and move them
to a new location and append the file name. Testing through the script I had
it all working and now all of a sudden the minutes, seconds, and hours that I
pull out to use in the log renaming arent displaying... only the
day/month/year variables print out.

I've added some extra lines in order for it to print out the results to my
screen instead of moving the files so you'll see the move commented out in
the current version. Anyone see why min/sec/hours isnt catching a variable
all of a sudden. I don't believe I've changed any thing.

$path = "c:\etc\blah\cache\"
$backuppath = "c:\temp\blah\backup\"
$compare = (Get-Date).AddDays(-1)


ForEach($folder in $path)
{

$oldfolder = Get-ChildItem $folder | where-object {$_.lastwritetime -lt
$compare}

ForEach ($moveme in $oldfolder)

{

[string]$mo = $moveme.lastwritetime.Month
[string]$day = $moveme.lastwritetime.Day
[string]$yr = $moveme.lastwritetime.Year
[string]$hr = $moveme.lastwritetime.Hours
[string]$sec = $moveme.lastwritetime.Seconds
[string]$min = $moveme.lastwritetime.Minutes

if ($mo.length -lt 2) {$mo="0"+$mo}
if ($day.length -lt 2) {$day="0"+$day}

$fulldate = $yr += $mo += $day += $hr += $min += $sec
$fulldate

#Move-Item "$path$moveme" "$backuppath$moveme.$fulldate"

}

}

Also, sorry, the output is:

20080904

I am looking for something more like:

200809040522203

By the way, you can save yourself many lines of code if you generate your
ISO8601 date string in $fulldate like this:

$moveme.lastwritetime.ToString("yyyyMMddHHmmss")

That will give you correct formatting with leading zeroes where needed for
padding.
