Thank you for the reply. So would I replace that line with: for /F "tokens=2-4 delims=/ " %i in ('date /t') do %k%i%j I appreciate your help, csd158

Wondering if someone could help with the following batch file...I would like it to keep a running log of dates. Now it overwrites the previous day, any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
