Somthing like this should do the trick:-

  echo. | date | find "20/09/1995" >tempfile
  copy tempfile+,, >nul
  if exist tempfile type hello.ans

You may need to change the date string so that it agrees with the format
which DATE produces on your machine.  You may also like to add this line
to the end to tidy up:-

  if exist tempfile del tempfile

Rudy.
