Batch Script does NOT Update Time

Good evening.

I have setup a Batch Script that I can run various Reports/Logs from. Now I have setup the Week Day-Date-Time output exactly how I want it and it works brilliantly. BUT, if I open the Batch Script and do NOT run a Report/Log for say 30 minutes for example, when I do run a Report/Log, it shows the EXACT time that the Batch Script was opened, regardless of how many times I run it

I have tried using setlocal EnableDelayedExpansion [!], and numerous other methods to get around this, but to NO avail.

Here is the block of Batch Script in its raw form WITHOUT using ANY setlocal EnableDelayedExpansion to make it easier as a starting point . . .

Code:

setlocal EnableDelayedExpansion

for /f %%i in ('wmic OS Get LocalDateTime /Value ^& wmic Path Win32_LocalTime Get DayOfWeek /Value') do for /f %%j in ("%%i") do (set "%%j") & set /a "DOW=DayOfWeek+1"
for /f "tokens=%DOW%" %%i in ("Sunday Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday Saturday") do (set "Week_Day=%%i")
for /f %%i in ('wmic OS Get LocalDateTime /format:list ^| find "="') do set "%%i"
set "DD=%LocalDateTime:~6,2%" & set /a "MMM=1%LocalDateTime:~4,2% - 100" & set "YYYY=%LocalDateTime:~0,4%"
for /f "tokens=%MMM%" %%i in ("Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec") do set "Month=%%i"
set "HH=%LocalDateTime:~8,2%" & set "MM=%LocalDateTime:~10,2%" & set "SS=%LocalDateTime:~12,2%"
set "Program_Date=%DD%-%Month%-%YYYY%
set "Created_Date=%Week_Day% the %Program_Date% at %HH%:%MM%:%SS%"

The output is like this > Tuesday the 12-Oct-2021 at 20:24:45 for example.

I do NOT want this to be in a DIFFERENT output format other that the above.
I want to do this WITHOUT using PowerShell.

This is NOT a big problem, but it would be nice to find an answer for it.

Thanks in advance.

NOT to worry, I found a solution which I will post tomorrow.

OK, here is the solution.

I obviously had to use setlocal EnableDelayedExpansion for some of the Variables.

I created a Label with the Week Day - Date - Time information and the associated Variables.
The required format being Wednesday the 13-Oct-2021 at 12:24:45 for example.
%OFN% is the Variable that holds the Report/Log Filename.
I then Call it at the appropriate time . . .

Code:

>> %OFN%      Call :Report_Header

:Report_Header

(setlocal EnableDelayedExpansion
 for /f %%i in ('wmic OS Get LocalDateTime /Value ^& wmic Path Win32_LocalTime Get DayOfWeek /Value') do for /f %%j in ("%%i") do (set "%%j") & set /a "DOW=DayOfWeek+1"
 for /f "tokens=%DOW%" %%i in ("Sunday Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday Saturday") do (set "Week_Day=%%i")
 for /f %%i in ('wmic OS Get LocalDateTime /format:list ^| find "="') do set "%%i"
 set "DD=!LocalDateTime:~6,2!" & set /a "MMM=1!LocalDateTime:~4,2! - 100" & set "YYYY=!LocalDateTime:~0,4!"
 for /f "tokens=%MMM%" %%i in ("Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec") do set "Month=%%i"
 set "HH=!LocalDateTime:~8,2!" & set "MM=!LocalDateTime:~10,2!" & set "SS=!LocalDateTime:~12,2!"
 set "Program_Date=!DD!-!Month!-!YYYY!
 set "Created_Date=!Week_Day! the !Program_Date! at !HH!:!MM!:!SS!"
 echo.
 echo Title   : %Title%
 echo Author  : %Author%
 echo Filename: %~nx0
 echo Created : !Created!
 echo User    : %UserName%
 echo.
) & exit /b

Works brilliantly.

Hopefully, this solution will help others in the future who are looking for a method to achieve this.

SOLVED.
