I need to create a folder each day based on the datetime and am creating a folder using this as its name

 

%CurrentDateTime.Year%%CurrentDateTime.Month%%CurrentDateTime.Day%

 

 

 

e.g

 

mydir/20111128

mydir/20111129

 

BUT when I get to start of month I now get

 

mydir/20111121

 

I need

 

mydir/201111201

 

is it possible to do this ?

You should have something more a long the lines of this:

1. Get Current Date and Time - saves to %CurrentDateTime%

2. Convert DateTime to Text - make sure to choose custom in the "Format to Use" and then in Custom Format put in: yyyyMMdd

3. Create Folder %FormattedDateTime% into C:\mydir
