Tips for using dates in file save names.
Q: Luis Pelaez writes to say that he is having a problem creating a document save name with a formatted date.
A: You can have problems if you use slashes in file names, such as the standard mm/dd/yyyy date format. I use a custom format, such as Format(Date(), “mm-dd-yyyy”). You can create whatever date format you want, and so long as it doesn’t contain illegal characters, it should work in a file name.
