Command line syntax is Invalid????

Hello, I am kinda new to this, but I'm trying to rename a file Coll-
Recall-[date][time].txt with Recall[date].txt. When i run the scripts
i get "the syntax of the command is incorrect". I have put the REN
line of code below....can someone tell me whats wrong. This is on a
W2K3 server. Thank you for your help.

cd c:\
ren d:\Enable\Coll-Recall-*.txt Recall%date:~-2,2%%date:~4,2%
%date:~7,2%.txt

 

Love the line wrap, take your pick -
The %date, what is %date set to?
The ~ part of the shortfile name?
Oops, the ~ is a command for the the 2.2?
that's using : as delimiter.

Then again if you add it all together, it's grabbing the value

%date:~start,end%

Is this some scripting language you invented? Doesn't look like KiXtart,
which should be on every Win server.

Usually I find it easier to use Perl on any OS.
