How to exclude files if the date falls on a Sunday or Monday

How to exclude files if the date falls on a Sunday or Monday

Q: I have a task where I’m using change notify to check when a new folder is added. I’m filtering the folder by using %TCD:mmdd:, but the problem is I want to exclude the folders if the date falls on a Sunday or Monday. Is there a filter that would allow me to do that?

A: This is possible using our Pascal Script option.

  • Open our Pascal Script setup:

  • Please enable and add the following ‘On RuleBegin’ Pascal Script:
Begin
  psExitCode:= 1;
  // ... add your code here
  IF DayOfTheWeek(Now) in [1,7] Then
    psExitCode := 0;
 
  (*
  The DayOfTheWeek function returns an index number for the day of the week :
  1         = Monday
  2         = Tuesday
  3         = Wednesday
  4         = Thursday
  5         = Friday
  6         = Saturday
  7         = Sunday
  *)    
End.
