COPY Command in DOS

by naseemi . Updated 21 years, 2 months ago

Hi,

I wish to copy a file (C:\DIRECTORY1\FILE1.TXT) to another subdirectory but with the current date appended to the filename (C:\DIRECTORY2\FILE1_20APR2005.TXT)

Is there a way to do this type of file copy using the COPY command (or any other) in DOS? I want to write this into a batch file as a form of backup process.

Please email me at : naseemi@webmail.co.za

Many thanks in advance

Naseem
