It just so happens I recently had to solve this problem while creating
a test installation of the MDLP utility I'm working on.

<http://www.sortmonster.com/MDLP/>

I needed a batch file to automatically pull yesterday's auto-rotated
declude log. I found some code snippets and hacked together a batch
file to do it. (Attached with the dot changed to _)

The script actually writes some vbs code on the fly and uses it to
create some variables for the .bat file to use in it's travels. It's a
hack, it's a hack, it's a hack!!!!

Watch out!

But... it does work ;-)

I'll bet you can pick through this code and rework it for your needs.

Hope this helps,
