Here we go again - Now EDGE doesn't work

Hi Luukdb!

Your issue here lies in the AqDateTime.Now function. This will return the current date/time in a format that is not compatible with Windows file system naming conventions. 

We have a format function you can use to retrieve the date/time and format it in various ways to match the date/time required and for Windows file name conventions. This is the 'aqConvert.DateTimeToFormatStr' method. 

You can find information for this method here = https://support.smartbear.com/testcomplete/docs/reference/program-objects/aqconvert/datetimetoformatstr.html

An example of how to integrate this into your code is below. Note I have a 'log.Message' operation so that we can see what the raw and formatted dates look like.

aqFile.Copy("c:\\file1.txt", "c:\\copy\\file1.txt");

function RenameXMLFile()
{
  
 var timeNowRaw = aqDateTime.Now()
 var timeNowFormatted = aqConvert.DateTimeToFormatStr(timeNowRaw,"%m%d%Y_%H%M")
 
 Log.Message("Unformatted raw date from aqDateTime.Now =  " + aqDateTime.Now())
 Log.Message("Formatted Date = " + aqConvert.DateTimeToFormatStr(timeNowRaw, "%m%d%Y_%H%M"))
 
 var OldPath = "c:\\file1.txt";
 var NewPath = "c:\\copy\\file1copy"+ timeNowFormatted + ".xml";

 
 // Renames the file
 aqFileSystem.RenameFile(OldPath, NewPath);
}
