Dates in NT Batch Files.

The easy part is getting the date and time but doing it reliably takes a bit more. Simon Sheppard nails it: 

@echo off&SETLOCAL
:: This will return date into environment vars
:: Works on any NT/2K/XP machine independent of regional date settings
:: 20 March 2002

FOR /f "tokens=1-4 delims=/-. " %%G IN ('date /t') DO (call :s_fixdate %%G %%H %%I %%J)
goto :s_print_the_date
   
:s_fixdate
if "%1:~0,1%" GTR "9" shift
FOR /f "skip=1 tokens=2-4 delims=(-)" %%G IN ('echo.^|date') DO (
   set %%G=%1&set %%H=%2&set %%I=%3)
goto :eof

:s_print_the_date
echo Month:[%mm%]  Day:[%dd%]  Year:[%yy%]
ENDLOCAL&SET mm=%mm%&SET dd=%dd%&SET yy=%yy%

This incredible batch file, by Simon Sheppard completes the list of things you didn't think you could do in a batch file.

echo.
echo DateMath will set the variables as listed below
echo 'str' variables include leading zeros e.g. "01"
echo 'int' variables leading zeros are stripped e.g. "1"
echo.
echo CALL DateMath YY MM DD - YY2 MM2 DD2 
echo.
echo Will set variable v_dd_int to the signed difference
echo between the 2 dates (measured in days)
echo.
echo.
echo CALL DateMath YY MM DD +/- Days 
echo.
echo Will set the following variables to the result of 
echo adding or substracting days from the initial date:
echo v_ymd_str, v_yy_int
echo v_mm_str, v_mm_int,
echo v_dd_str, v_dd_int
