DOS Time/Date

An internal command that sets the system time and date and updates the internal battery-powered clock. Versions previous to 3.3 do not set the internal clock. A separate setup program is used.

       time           display time
       time 14:30     set to 2:30pm

       date           display date
       date 12-11-99  set to 12-11-99

TO UPDATE A FILE'S TIME AND DATE
To give a file a current time and date without changing it, use the Copy command. For example, to update XYZ.BAT, type:

      copy /b xyz.bat+,,

Be sure to add the plus, comma, comma after the file name. The /b ensures that no change is made to the file.
