Assign Date to a Var

Comment:

Dear All, My OS : Solaris and Shell is ksh. I have a requirement to assign date to a variable. I tried following and failed. myvar=date '+ %y%m%d_%h' After that I need to do an awk fo all the files containing the same date and hour. (File name consists of date and hour) eg. Myfile_NAME_020930_1325.0010 Therefore I need to awk all files that created this hour. Appreciate your Help.
