File Name
12. Click on
13. Select the desired file name pattern from the "File pattern" list, or create your own pattern by
writing in the "File pattern" field.
In the "Example" area, you see an example of the respective selected file name pattern.
The structure of the file names comprises the input symbols listed below, and the file suffix
".csv".
- {DD} = stands for day (01 to 31 are displayed)
- {MM} = stands for month (01 to 12 are displayed)
- {YYYY} = stands for year (if {YY} is selected, the last two digits of the year are displayed,
e.g. "07“. If {YYYY} is selected, the year is shown in full, e.g. "2007“).
- {NN} = sequential number
- {hh} = stands for hour
- {mm} = stands for minute
- {ss} = stands for second
These input symbols must be between braces { }, so that the input symbols are translated into
their respective meanings (e.g. year), and thus the current year will appear at this position in
the file name (e.g. {YY} = 07 and {YYYY} = 2007).
The following additional input symbols are also permissible for the file names.
- _ (underscore)
- . (period)
- -- (hyphen)
