Hallo mark!

Here are some thins you might wont to look at in 4DOS/4NT

@DATE[mm-dd-yy]                  Convert date to number of days
@DAY[mm-dd-yy]                   Day of the month
@DOW[mm-dd-yy]                   Day of the week
@DOWF[mm-dd-yy]                  Day of the week (full name)
@DOWI[mm-dd-yy]                  Numeric day of the week
@DOY[mm-dd-yy]                   Numeric day of the year
@MAKEAGE[date[,time]]            Convert date/time to file date/time
@MAKEDATE[n]                     Convert number of days to date
@MAKETIME[n]                     Convert number of seconds to time
@MONTH[mm-dd-yy]                 Month of the year
@TIME[hh:mm:ss]                  Convert time to number of seconds
@YEAR[mm-dd-yy]                  Year number (2 digits)


This will run on Friday.

IFF "%@UPPER[%_DOW]" == "FRI" THEN
    .
    .
    .
ENDIFF

This will run on the 13th day of the mounth.

IFF "%@UPPER[%_DAY]" == "13" THEN
    .
    .
    .
ENDIFF





These commands are straight 4DOS/4NT Commands.  No other progran is needed.


Hope this helps,

Robert
