I want to rename a directory each day to the current date using a script. For example I would like to rename "aaa" to "102700" It is not important that the date resemble the one used in an example.
Thanks Drew

Don't know if it is what you're looking for, but try

move [drive]:\olddir [drive]:\newdir

You can do this purely in batch or enlist
the aid of a third party utility.

This batch will parse the system date.

After that you can do whatever you want with
the pieces.

"If you prefer, you can download send.com
Suppose that your communication program
captures input into a file named "temp" by default. You want to make a batch file which collects your electronic mail and stores it
in a file whose name is stamped with today's date. Include the line
send ren temp mail$M$D.$Y $_exit$_|command
in the file and things will work exactly as you wish." --from send.doc
