I know this might seem like an easy one but I’m having a problem getting my relevance statement to work. I’m trying to rename a folder to the current date in the format of mmddyyyy. Can anyone help?

Thanks,

Arturo

Nevermind I think I figured out my own problem. I was trying to use properties from BigFix 6.0 that are not available in 5.1, the version that we are currently using.

Anyhow this is the statement I was trying to use and I’m pretty sure it would work right?

Dos rename “file_path_name” “filename_{day_of_year of now}”

Hi alagos,

I think you actually want to use this relevance (BES 6.0 only):

q: day_of_year of current date

A: March 22

Here is something you can use for all versions of BES:

q: first 6 of following text of position 5 of (now as string)

A: 22 Mar
