Hello,
Are you using some other program to schedule your Automation Anywhere task? The task should run normally even if you use Windows Scheduler. Can you try to schedule the same task in Automation Anywhere and try again? If it still does not work, send me the variable.dat file and your text file you are using to read variable. Please figure out if you have written the variable in correct format in text file as variable = value and your variable is set to read from the correct text file.
You can get format type of 20070614 by using excel. What you can do create a task as follows:
Go to cell A1 in excel file, and write =today() and hit Enter.
In cell A2, copy this function =CONCATENATE((YEAR(A1)),,IF(LEN(MONTH(A1))=1,CONCA TENATE("0",MONTH(A1)),MONTH(A1)),IF(LEN(DAY(A1))=1 ,CONCATENATE("0",DAY(A1)),DAY(A1))) and hit Enter.
Now UP Arrow key and CTRL+C to copy the text.
assign $Clipboard$ value to some variable.
Similarly if you want to get date-1, you can use =today()-1 function in excel, copy using CTRL+c and assign it to some variable nnd use it in your task.  |
