Perhaps this question should go into the programming section of this forum(?).
OS/2 Warp-ed to the very end.

Correct, I've moved this from the Utility board to the Programming board.

Sorry, the one time I don't preview before I post is the time it messes up.

Let's try again:

echo %date%, %time%>foo.txt

Try the following:

@echo | date |find "Current" >document.txt
@echo | time |find "Current" >>document.txt

( Note: ("Current"=case sensitive) and (>, >> = create, extend file)
