Question

Is there a way to make a macro to save a file with the current day in the name. I want to save this off everyday with the correct date.

This is what I have as a macro, pretty simple, but I am having issues with getting the current date formula in the file name (if possible)

Sub Save()
    ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:="X:\file06-21-2012\.xlsm", FileFormat _
    :=xlOpenXMLWorkbookMacroEnabled, CreateBackup:=False
End Sub

So tomorrow i would want the marco to save it as file06-22-2012.

Thanks

Like this?

Sub Save()
    Dim FilePath As String
    Dim NewName As String

    FilePath = "X:\": NewName = FilePath & "file" & Format(Date, "MM-DD-YYYY") & ".xlsm"

    ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:=NewName, FileFormat _
    :=xlOpenXMLWorkbookMacroEnabled, CreateBackup:=False
End Sub
