Monthly File Integration

‎01-08-2021 07:35 AM

Hi.

 

I have the current issue for which I cannot solve:

 

I need to

 

  1. keep the latest files of each month (but the current) , and
  2. append these to the lastest file of the month.

Sounds trivial, but I cannot make it happen.

 

Thank you for your guidance

JM

This is doable but not clear on your request.  Can you provide a sample table of filenames and created dates, and identify the ones you'd like to keep (so you can combine them)?

Regards,

Pat
