Hi !
I've problems with initialize a variable with a dynamic variable like
"date". In Korn Shell I've used the following syntax with success:
TID=`date +"%d%m%y%H%M%S"`
I've tried the same syntax in BASH-shell, but without luck. In BASH-shell
it only work for me with the following syntax:
date +"%d%m%y%H%M%S" > tid
read TID < tid
Can you help me !
Thanks in advance !
Med venlig hilsen/Best regards
