Calculation Date

[Juan]

For the module TextExpander , you may get something like the date format DDMMYYYY 20 days ago?

Is it possible to subtract or add days to the current date and get the result with % A_DD %% %% A_YYYY % A_MM format ?

[Marko]

Possible, of course.

You need to use the Type: Command

Code: Select all

Date:=A_Now
Date+=-20, Days
FormatTime, Date, %Date%, dd/MM/yyyy 
Send, 20 days from now was %Date%.

There are many other possibilities: http://www.autohotkey.com/docs/commands/FormatTime.htm

I like your code above.

But I would like to show a future date in 8 business days (excluding Saturday and Sunday) What adjustment do I need to make to the code to allow for non-delivery on weekend days?

Date:=A_Now
Date+=+8, Days
FormatTime, Date, %Date%, dd/MM/yyyy
Send, 8 business days from now is%Date%.

Much appreciated for your help.

Code: Select all

Days:=8
BDays := 0
While (BDays < Days) 
{
 Today += 1, D
 FormatTime, WDay, %Today%, WDay
 If (Wday <> 1) && (WDay <> 7) ; not Sunday and not Saturday
	 BDays++
}
FormatTime, Date, %Today%, dd/MM/yyyy
Send, %Days% business days from now is %Date%.
