Try: PCName%Date(yyyy-mm-dd)-%Time(HH-mm-ss).tbk Because of the limited space in the file name 'window' you may have to enter small blocks of the text starting from the right. For example first enter %Time(HH-mm-ss).tbk and then enter the next block at the left of the first etc. -- Best regards, Roger :flag-southafrica: The Bat! v3.98.4 :beta: with AntispamSniper 1.8.0.8 , on Windows XP, version 5 1, build 2600 and Service Pack 2 ________________________________________________ Current version is 3.98.04 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
