change this line:

Dim g_szLogNameTemplate g_szLogNameTemplate = g_shell.SpecialFolders("MyDocuments") & "\MM-DD-YYYY -

to this line:

Dim g_szLogNameTemplate = g_shell.SpecialFolders("MyDocuments") & "\MM-DD-YYYY -

sedgwick,

having made the change I get the following error

try this:

# $language = "VBScript"
# $interface = "1.0"

Sub Main()

Dim szLogFilename
set g_szLogNameTemplate = g_shell.SpecialFolders("MyDocuments") & "\MM-DD-YYYY - HOST.log"

szLogFilename = g_szLogNameTemplate
szLogFilename = Replace(szLogFilename, "HOST", szHost)
szLogFilename = Replace(szLogFilename, "MM", NN(Month(Now)))
szLogFilename = Replace(szLogFilename, "DD", NN(Day(Now)))
szLogFilename = Replace(szLogFilename, "YYYY", Year(Now))

crt.session.logfilename = szLogFilename

End Sub

Select allOpen in new window

btw, you can use FormatDateTime to format your date time in a single line without calling Replace on the string:

Hi Sedgwick,

Thanks again for responding. I'm getting the attached error

that was originally in your script, if i think that i know what u meant then try this:

# $language = "VBScript"
# $interface = "1.0"

Sub Main()

Dim szLogFilename
set g_shell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell") 
set g_szLogNameTemplate = g_shell.SpecialFolders("MyDocuments") & "\MM-DD-YYYY - HOST.log"

szLogFilename = g_szLogNameTemplate
szLogFilename = Replace(szLogFilename, "HOST", szHost)
szLogFilename = Replace(szLogFilename, "MM", NN(Month(Now)))
szLogFilename = Replace(szLogFilename, "DD", NN(Day(Now)))
szLogFilename = Replace(szLogFilename, "YYYY", Year(Now))

crt.session.logfilename = szLogFilename

End Sub
                                            

Select allOpen in new window

Hi Sedgwick,


I added the script above as follows:


# $language = "VBScript"
# $interface = "1.0"

Sub Main()


Dim g_shell, g_szLogNameTemplate, szLogFilename
set g_shell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
g_szLogNameTemplate = g_shell.SpecialFolders("MyDocuments") & "\MM-DD-YYYY - HOST.log"

szLogFilename = g_szLogNameTemplate
szLogFilename = Replace(szLogFilename, "HOST", szHost)
szLogFilename = Replace(szLogFilename, "MM", Month(Now))
szLogFilename = Replace(szLogFilename, "DD", Day(Now))
szLogFilename = Replace(szLogFilename, "YYYY", Year(Now))

crt.session.logfilename = szLogFilename

MsgBox szLogFilename

End Sub


However I got the following error message, please see attached

My mistake, replace the wscript line to:
 set g_shell=CreateObject(...

Hi Sedgwick,

Sorry for not responding sooner. I have been working on another script that I have recently posted that is more important. I wonder if you can help me with it. Its VBS Modification PT6.

Would be great if you could assist me with that.

In the meantime, I will try your modification here.

Cheers

Carlton
