Rename file on date

[vespin]

Greetings,

I'm really new to C++, but I'm attempting to create a program that will rename two files on a certain date. The files are:

c:\orrtax\2001\sys\ot2001.bat and c:\orrtax\2001\sys\ot2001nd.bat and I want to have them renamed on october 31st 2003. Does anyone have any sample code that will help with this?

In the meantime I will search for a book.

I would use a batch file and put it in the scheduler, but it's for a friend who has win 95.

#include <time.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <windows.h>

main()
{
struct tm *newtime;
time_t aclock;

while(1)
{
time(&aclock);
newtime = localtime(&aclock);
if(strcmp(&quot;Mon Oct 07 17:53:00 2002\n&quot;, asctime(newtime)) == 0)
{
system(&quot;ren file1.bat file2.bat&quot;
}
Sleep(500);
}
return(0);
}
