I have a batch file that FTPs a text file from a server to the user's PC. However sometimes the file is needed to be FTPed more than once a day. When we attempt to FTP it again, since there is a file with the same name already in that directory we get the following:

A duplicate file name exists, or the file
cannot be found.
Press any key to continue . . .

How can I tell the batch file to add one digit to the end of the file name so that we don't have this duplicate issue.

For example:

09-20-07file1.txt
09-20-07file2.txt
09-20-07file3.txt
...etc.

Thanks,
