Default Saving date as part of filename

Hi all

I am using Excel 2000 and I want to assign a routine to a button that
takes a name from one cell and a date from another and passes this to
the Saveas routine. The idea is that I will end up with a copy of the
original file that has a name such as MyFile070308.xls.

However, when I try this the date gets re-formatted into the number of
days since 01/01/1900.

Any ideas?

Chris
