Date/time stamp in file name created by MIM in destination list

I'm trying to append a date/time stamp to the name of a file MIM is creating in a destination list but no substitution is taking place. I'm using the ${gmtDate}${gmtTime} variable, but that literal is appended to the file name (if the file name is TESTFILE.TXT and I use want to append the name with the time stamp, I put TESTFILE_${gmtDate}@${gmtTime}.TXT.....but the substitution doesn't happen in the destination list....but it does work in a request template, straight FTF). How can I do this in a dlist?

Mark,

See this example for how you can use an exit to perform this functionality:

Can't seem to find the replaceFileName script in our registry or in our bin file. mvh

Depends on exception thrown!

Yes, there was a problem with my example. I have updated it, and reposted it to the original message.

Still no luck. Using the new replaceFileName script I receive the following error:

activity Pre_Sender_Exit_Point
locationCode Exception locationCode
message 'strPolicy' undeclared identifier in line 31

var temp=strPolicy;
Date::new();
temp=temp.gsub("\\${gmtDate}",Date.gmtDate);
temp=temp.gsub("\\${gmtTime}",Date.gmtTime);

Line 31 of the script appears as
temp = temp.gsub("\\${SECOND}",rightJustify(Date.second,2.'0'));

I see no error.

MARK HUBAND

When I run the replaceFileName.xms script, I receive the same error:

XMOException: XMScriptException

'strPolicy' undeclared identifier in line 22

doVariableSubstitution(strPolicy)

{

var temp=strPolicy;

Date::new();

temp=temp.gsub("\\${gmtDate}",Date.gmtDate);

temp=temp

Can you post your "Request XML" from the Process Monitor Request entry?
