| Vista Home basic 32bit | I want to automatically name folders ? Hi, can any one help me to automatically name new folders. I make folders for inventory items. I name them using the date and time. It's quite time consuming to have to look at the clock each time and type the info into the new folder naming box. In answer, I'd like to be able to press a button or two and have a folder appear with its name being the date and time. Thanks in advance Bill |

For new folders it's even easier. You can define them to be created as e.g. yyyymmdd_hhnnss right away, so on pressing Ctrl+N (for "New Folder") you will get a folder called "20090516_082149". http://www.xyplorer.com/ Don |
