let vdate=Date(today(),'DDMMYYYY');

LOAD sn,

     rm

FROM

TNA_$(vdate)*.txt

(txt, codepage is 1252, embedded labels, delimiter is ',', msq);

This is working fine with me. Reconfirm your code as shown above and reconfirm the path you are using.

Your variable is defining the date wrongly - let vdate=Date(today(),MMDDYYYY)

Needs to be DDMMYYYY, and within quotes - 'DDMMYYYY'

And,

date format should be enclosed within quotes, like:

vdate=Date(today(), 'DDMMYYYY')

Hi Tresesco,

I agree with you piece of code, even know i am getting error like 'system cannot find the path specified' because file name consists time in the end. How to rectify this?
