File copy/paste adds " - Copy" - how to change to " - Copy" + date/time?

Is there any way I can change the default file copied name from having " - Copy" at the end to " - Copy" plus the date and time?
Before editing files I always make a copy of the existing file so I have a backup. I do this by clicking on the file I want to change in the list of files then do Ctrl C and Ctrl V which creates a copy of the file at the end of the list of times, with "- Copy" at the end of the name in the format "index - Copy.php". Is there any way I can get Dreamweaver to add the date and time to the name which would save me from editing the name and adding the date and time every time. Its a pain having to do this but I don't know any other way to ensure I know the date and time the file was copied. I know that there is a Modified date and time but changing a template for instance changes that and besides the file could also be edited but having the name reflect the copy date/time allows me to have the Modified date/time as a double check. I would like to have the file name in the format "index - Copy20110216 1621.php", the date being the international format and the time slotted on the end of it. This then puts the files in date/time order in the list.

There's no way of customising a copied file name using DW that I'm aware of.
Either rename it manually in DW or use a 3rd party file copy utlity outside DW.
Is there a reason for keeping a hard copy of the last copied date that the Last Modified date in the operating system does not record?

  • Gantt chart- How to change the color of time bars of different versions

    Hi All,
    My Client wants to see all changes in planning schedule. I made different versions of these changes but he also want to see all these changes in gantt chart and in different colors. I tried to change the color in planning board assistant but in this screen (CJ27/ CJ2B). we cannot view all versions together. And if I use CN41, there I cannot change the colors of time bars.
    Secondly, we can change colors of times bars of basic dates, forecast dates and actual dates but there is no provision to change the colors of schedule bars of different project versions. Kindly reply-
    1. How to see all project versions in CJ27 or How to customise bar chart in cn41 or if we change in SPRO, then how to change graphic profile in project info profile
    2. How to change colors of different time bars of different versions.
    3. How to mention these legends (meaning of each color in chart) at footer of gantt chart (in print outs)
    Please Help.
    Thanks & Regards
    Dinesh Chauhan

    Thanks,
    actually I've created new project planning board profile where planning board assistant is customized but unable to use this profile in CN41. we can change PS info profile in CN41 and that;s why I thought that planning board profile may be assigned somewhere in PS info profile so that changes in planning board assistant will be applied in CN41 through PS info profile. Graphic profile is too complex to understand and not sure if it will help to get colored time bars of projct versions in gantt chart. Still not clear.
    Secondly not able to see all versions (snap shots) in gantt chart with different colors of time bars.
    I mean planning board screen can be customized but we cannt see different versions here which are possible in CN41, but we cannt customize the gantt chart (time bars) in CN41. Pls help.
    Thx & Regards

  • How to change mac address on time capsule

    Hi there,
    How to change mac address on time capsule?

    There are routers that allow you to create/clone a mac address to whatever you like. Since many companies use the mac address to 'register' a unit connected to it's system, you usually just have to let them know you've changed your router and they will reset your system to accept connections from the new device.

    Shouldn't the font size and style also be copied and pasted when I use the buttons to copy & paste the style within a page?

    Hello
    It seems that the description of these buttons in the Help is not clear.
    After several attempts, one may understand that they don't apply to attributes inserted "by hand" with cmd + B for instance but to "styles" defined in the Styles drawer.

  • How to change the Finder and Time machine Icons

    Hi, wondered how you change these icons as the usual method of just copying and pasting the image in does not work.  Would also like to not have to download an app to be able to do this if possible.
    Thanks.

    I do not think the FINDER icon can be changed.  I have seen software that allows you to change the appearance of external HHDs, but I do not know if that is possible with Time Machine.  If I were a betting man I would say no.
    Ciao.

  • How to change crystal report data field at runtime ?

    Hello everyone,
    I have a Crystal Report file ,which i am using to generate report for my windows form project .
    In that report i have a filed called as Quantity which data type is set as decimal, the requirement is like that the number of value those comes after decimal point that should be set according to the value which is given by the user at the run time .
    For eg: If user gives 1 at the run time then the report Qty field value set one value after decimal point. Like 12.1
    if user gives 2 then Qty field the value is 12.22 like tat  but user can give from zero to any number.. and if it is zero it should not show decimal
    Note: The main idea hear is how to change the filed in Crystal Report decimal point value by using code(or we say writing code we need to set manually as user input it will change)
    Can any body help me how to solve this issue .
    S.K Nayak

    I think you could probably make the field you see a formula field and take a parameter as the number of decimal places.
    totext converts a number to a string.
    totext({decimalField}, 2)
    That's 2 decimal places.
    You could probably substitute a {parameter} for that 2.
    If not then you could substitute an entire formula.
    To explore formulas:
    foreach (FormulaFieldDefinition f in rpt.DataDefinition.FormulaFields)
    MessageBox.Show(f.Name);
    // f.Text = your new formula
    Where rpt is an instantiated report.
    Or add another string field which you display in the column and do the calculation with the original decimal.
    Hope that helps.

  • How do you vary the Date/Time stamp format in File Adapters

    In the receiver channel of the File Adapter where you specify the 'File Name Scheme', you do have the option of specifying a 'File Construction Mode' of 'Add Time Stamp'.  How can you specify a different Date/Time stamp format ( eg MM/DD/YY vs YYYYMMDD vs MMDDYY, etc. ) without changing the Date/Time stamp for the entire SAP system?  Also, can you control where the Date/Time stamp appears in the filename?

    Hi,
    There are many threads discussing the same issue. Go thro the following:
    Dynamic file name (Date) in Receiver File Adapter
    Receiver File Adapter - TimeStamp
    Bhavesh's reply in above thread:
    You can use Adapter Specific Identifiers and then change the file name in the mapping. Append the tiem stamp in the format that you want and so on.
    Just use this code in an UDF,
    DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
    DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","FileName");
    String SourceFileName = conf.get(key);
    java.text.SimpleDateFormat dateformat = new java.text.SimpleDateFormat( "yyyyMMdd" );
    dateformat.format( new java.util.Date() );
    String newfilename=SourceFileName+dateformat;
    // change to new file name
    conf.put(key, newfilename);
    return "";

  • How do I add to the list of servers in 'Date & Time' System Preferences?

    Earlier versions of the Mac OS (9 and below, I believe) allowed a user to add to the list of time servers in what was then the Date and Time Control Panel. Now, under OS X (Tiger), I am able to select from the three servers that Apple provides, but I would like to add my own. I am able to paste a new one into the field of the 'Date & Time' preference pane, but it will not be permanently added to the list. There must be a way to do this, no?
    Thanks!

    it will not be permanently added to the list.
    It should stay there as long as you don't change it.
