Default Save date in filename

Oops, it's past my bedtime!

Paul is correct, and my only excuse is that my date separator is set up
as a dash, so out of habit I ignored the slash in your example.

Sorry for the confusion.

Thanks for your reply. When I try this, I get a run time
error. It says it cannot access the file ....
\Archive\Log File-2\23.

It appears as if it is treating the slashes in the date
as directory paths ... Any ideas?

Thanks,
Mike.

Hi. I would like to have the current date saved in the
filename when the macro is excercised.

For instance, the filename is "Log File.xls". I would
like a command that, if executed on February 23, it

would
save the filename "Log File - 2/23/04.xls.

My current command is:

ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:=ThisWorkbook.Path
& "\Archive\" & "Log File"

What should I add to this command to include the date?

Thanks,
Mike.
