Hi Everyone.
I need a little help with a batch file. I have managed a bit of it, but i'm
a bit lost now.
What I need to do is
1. Looks for file RS000001.001 in folder
2. Rename it RSmmdnnn.001 (mm=month, d= day number {Monday=1},
nnnn=unique count for the day)
Now this file can appear up to several times a day (ie its going to run as a
cron job every half hour to pick up the files as they are dumped by ftp) I
can do the basic stuff with the date ie DATE = `date +%m%u` but setting up
the nnnn bit is where I am getting lost.
Any help appreciated.
Stu
