Hi Guys,
I had been trying to write datetime.now feature into my filename.
I had attached what I have done till now. I did just try random wild guess of
“Filename”+datetime.now.tostring+“.xlsx”
Trust me this never works even I tried this thing also
path.GetFullPath(“D:\uipath”.ToString)
path.Combine(folderpath.ToString,“Test”+system.DateTime.Now.ToString(“dd:MMM:hh:mm:ss”)+“.xlsx”)
The above has also an error it says ) that closed bracket expected.
Please help TIA
Regards
Rahul
You cannot use “:” in the file name…

I simply changed your code as shown below…and it worked…

Hi @Rahul_Singh_Kamboj ,
As mentioned by @prasath17 , you cannot use colon in file path
Try this
path.Combine(folderpath.ToString,“Test”+system.DateTime.Now.ToString(ddMMM_hhmmss”)+“.xlsx”)
Instead of colon you can also use underscore.

This works but I have been assigned to make a file name as this
Pull out the only data from Sheet1 which is available in sheet2, and save it in New excel named as "Filtered_Data_dd:MMM_hh:mm:ss.xlsx
Thanks, everyone the best way to do it is
“FileName”+System.DateTime.Now.ToString(“dd.MMM_hh.mm.ss”)+“.xlsx”
forget path combine or anything just by taking care of the .(dot) and without using colon this can work.
“Filtered_Data_dd:MMM_hh:mm:ss.xlsx”
the file name cant come as shown above right ?
Yes, I have already shared you a screenshot on why you can’t use : …
it would be great, if you make pertinent post as solution so that users will be benefited.
