The easy part is getting the date and time but doing it reliably takes a bit more. Simon Sheppard nails it:
@echo off&SETLOCAL :: This will return date into environment vars :: Works on any NT/2K/XP machine independent of regional date settings :: 20 March 2002 FOR /f "tokens=1-4 delims=/-. " %%G IN ('date /t') DO (call :s_fixdate %%G %%H %%I %%J) goto :s_print_the_date :s_fixdate if "%1:~0,1%" GTR "9" shift FOR /f "skip=1 tokens=2-4 delims=(-)" %%G IN ('echo.^|date') DO ( set %%G=%1&set %%H=%2&set %%I=%3) goto :eof :s_print_the_date echo Month:[%mm%] Day:[%dd%] Year:[%yy%] ENDLOCAL&SET mm=%mm%&SET dd=%dd%&SET yy=%yy% :: see also http://www.robvanderwoude.com/amb_datetime.html :: http://www.robvanderwoude.com/datetiment.html :: http://www.commandline.co.uk/cmdfuncs/dandt/index.html

This incredible batch file, by Simon Sheppard completes the list of things you didn't think you could do in a batch file.
