Title: dynamic var issue
Post by: Guest_chris_* on October 04, 2005, 01:26:29 PM

hello all -

I have a bat filr that is used as input for an ftp process. a file is put out every day and I need to get just that days file. I use a simple pl/sq to get the date and put it in the proper format in a var called currdt1

this line is giving me the problem:

echo get bill%currdt1%.TXT >> daliyftp.inp

the result i am getting is:

Code: [Select]

bill20051004                                                                            .txtso no file is found.

this was working fine against a sql server db, but now vs oracle, i get all these extra chars...

any suggestions? can i do something like &trim(currdt1)%

I found the answer on this site in one of the tutorials. in case someone else encounteres this, you can use bill%currdt1:~0,8%.TXT

which gives me my variable starting at pos 0 for 8 chars...
