Hello and welcome Reloader.... this is a very general question... You may find practical answers on our forum or for official MS descriptions, please see:

Date Function | Day Function | Hour Function | Minute Function | Month Function | Second Function | Time Function | Weekday Function | Year Function

Hello,

Thanks for the help, but on the official MS page, there is no any concrete help for tihs problem, or I'm blind:)

I try to explain exactly my problem. The first is that I'm new in VBScript:)
The second, that I need to write a script for a batch. The batch is move many files in a folder once a day. My script has to view the timestamp of these files, and delete those, what are older than one month.

Your suggest is good for the comparison, but for the timestamp checking.
If your next answer will be the same, I swear I'm going to optometrist:)

PS.: Sorry for my English.

Hiya,

this may be of some help: (not tested by me personally)

Option Explicit
Dim FSO,File
Dim Date1,Date2,Hour1,Hour2
set FSO=CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set File=FSO.GetFile("i:\x.txt")
Date1=Now()
Date2=File.DateLastModified
wscript.echo Date1
wscript.echo Date2
Hour1=DatePart("h",Date1)
Hour2=DatePart("h",Date2)
wscript.echo Hour1-Hour2,"Hours"
wscript.echo DateDiff("h",Date2,Date1),"Hours"
wscript.echo DateDiff("n",Date2,Date1),"Minutes"
wscript.echo DateDiff("s",Date2,Date1),"Seconds"

Thank you!

I will test it. I know, this is not a real programming, that I ask for codes, but it's important now:(

Thx again, and best regards,

Attila
