Reduced Document Name on QV 11 SR1

Hello:

I've this template for a Reduced Document Name on a QV 11 SR1 Server&Publisher

%DocumentField,PDF_Titulo%  -  %HH% %mm% %ss%

and works normally, but I want edited "time format" like this

%DocumentField,PDF_Titulo%  -  %HH%:%mm%:%ss%

When I added the semicolon to get an user friendly doc name, QV Publisher creates the document name with the portion between the semicolon; omitting the previous and the next part outside the semicolon.

See this example: 11.pdf  ... if the task runs at HH:11:SS

Please, what's the correct syntax to get this document name "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx - 12:35:47.pdf" ?

Thank you,

Joaquín

Hi Joaquin,

Try this, create a text file and try to rename it using the format you describe about. What do you get?

A colon can not be used by the OS.

That's true. I get an OS error.

The first thing I thought is that I was doing something wrong.
