I had been creating a time stamp just to give my output unique file names so as not to overwrite previous test output.
I'd been doing this:
REM TT= time tag for this runset T=%time%set TT=%T:~0,2%%T:~3,2%%T:~6,2%
It works fine after 10 am:
C:\Users\mharrison>set TT=%T:~0,2%%T:~3,2%%T:~6,2%C:\Users\mharrison>echo %TT%100359C:\Users\mharrison>echo filename%TT%filename100359
I've been using this time stamp method for weeks, but apparently never before 10 am. It broke my code this morning. Before 10am, the plain old time inserts a space:
C:\Users\mharrison>echo %time%9:56:08.38
So when I try to append it to make a unique file name, I insert a space in the file name, which confuses the code:
C:\Users\mharrison>set TT=%T:~0,2%%T:~3,2%%T:~6,2%C:\Users\mharrison>echo %TT%95740C:\Users\mharrison>echo filename%TT%filename 95740
So I changed the method to only use the 2nd digit of the hour:
REM TT= time tag for this runset T=%time%set TT=%T:~1,1%%T:~3,2%%T:~6,2%
C:\Users\mharrison>set T=%time%
C:\Users\mharrison>echo %T%10:11:54.96
C:\Users\mharrison>set TT=%T:~1,1%%T:~3,2%%T:~6,2%%T:~1,1%%T:~3,2%%T:~6,2%C:\Users\mharrison>echo %TT%0115401154C:\Users\mharrison>echo filename%TT%filename0115401154
