RE: [Declude.JunkMail] OT: Help with WinZip command line

But again, if Windows sees the file as 12:00 AM 04/17/06 rather than 11:59:59 PM 04/16/06 and you are running the script on 04/17/06 then it will not include yesterday’s log as Windows says it was modified today.   FYI, I am doing this for IIS logs, KIWI logs as well as Declude logs so I am looking for a universal solution.   John T eServices For You   "Seek, and ye shall find!"   -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dean Lawrence Sent: Monday, April 17, 2006 11:36 AM To: Declude.JunkMail@declude.com Subject: Re: [Declude.JunkMail] OT: Help with WinZip command line   John,   I run the following 2 commands on my daily IIS log files.   forfiles /p c:\clients /s /d -3 /m ex*.log /c "cmd /c wzzip @fname.zip @file"   forfiles /p c:\clients /s /d -3 /m ex*.log /c "cmd /c del @file"   I keep each of my clients log files underneath their own client directory so I use forfiles to identify the log files and zips anything that is older than 3 day (so that I can review if something happened over the weekend). I then run the same command, but using delete instead of wzzip. Both of these commands are in a simple bat file that I call from windows scheduler.   Hope it helps,   Dean   On 4/17/06, John T (Lists) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: I am trying to create a batch file that will zip up a weeks worth of logs and then move that zip file. The problem I am having is that I want to zip the previous 7 days, but sometimes the last log is time stamped say 04/16/06 11:59 PM and sometimes say 04/17/06 12:00 AM. Because of that, if I run the batch file on 04/17/06, it may or may not include the log file for 04/16/06 depending on the final time stamp. Other than stopping services just before midnight and then restarting, what is the best way to always ensure that I am processing the correct day's files?
