I cannot work out how to make the batch file pull the sent/received date from the. I'm not sure if this is possible using batch commands or not.
What I was wondering was whether it is possible to achieve this using a batch file where I could copy a bunch of emails into a folder, run a batch command to rename them, then move them wherever they need to go. msg file, reading the date/time at the top, clicking on the file, and then typing in the date in the format given above. This can be quite tedious and time-consuming when doing this to large numbers of emails as I am currently doing it manually by opening the. So for example, a file with the following name:Ģ021. To make things easier for myself and anyone else looking through these files, I rename them with the sent/received date (and a dash) at the front (in the format " YYYY.MM.DD.hhmm - " in 24 hour time) so that they automatically sort into chronological order when sorted by name. MSG files) into job folders for reference at a later time. If you type 1 in Hour, 1 hour is added to the date/time and if you type -1, 1 hour is subtracted from the date/time.As part of my job, I regularly have to save email correspondence (i.e. If Delta Date and Time is checked, these values are either added to or subtracted from the file date/time. When absolute or relative date/time is checked you can specify individual time parts in these six fields. Regular tags can also be used in the pattern, but note that the six date and time tags have special meaning here. jpg" the pattern - will automatically retrieve the date. They are used to specify how the date and time parts are recognized in the name.Įxample: If you have a filename with year, month, and day values in the name and you want to set the file date to this date and the filename is "Summer at the lake. The tags, ,, ,, and have special meaning in this method. In this field a pattern for how the date and time values can be retrieved from the file or parent directory name. When checked a pattern edit field will be visible in the bottom. Note: When you change from absolute to delta time, you should review the values of the edit fields. This determines if the values of the edit fields below are the absolute time or if the values are relative to the files current date and time. If this is checked and the files in the list are image files the date and time value will be set to the EXIF date taken value found inside the image file.Ībsolute date and time / Delte date and time You can check more than one of them, but at least one has to be selected. Use these checkboxes to select which date/time values you want to change. One for when the file was originally created, one for when it was last access, and one for when it was last modified. You can either change it to a fixed date/time, a date/time relative to the current date/time of the file, date/time from EXIF tags in images, or a pattern in the filename.Ī file contains three different date/time values. With the timestamp method you can change the date and time of the filename.
