need help, what i want to do is store an input into an log.txt file then recall the info based off today date. so set /p test=something: set /p test2=something: echo %date% >log.txt echo %test% >log.txt echo %test2% >log.txt then i think use findstr and have the info from the log.txt into the batch file. but not sure how to work it out. i dont mind having more then one log.txt to store each info but might be easier to do that. Thank you for the help Brock

I'm not clear on what you want. You put 2 vars and date into a file. Now what? ===================================== If at first you don't succeed, you're about average. M2

then have the same batch file search the date in a 2 week span and list the date and variable in the cmd window.
