How do I tell the Jet Scheduler that I would like to use the date the report was generated, to name the output folder and / or file?

So, if a sales report was scheduled on January 22, 2008 the output should be
- used in the folder X:…\January 22\Sales.xls
- used in the file name X:…\Sales Jan 22.xls
- or both X:…\January\Sales 22.xls

  Hi Hans,
  
  Long time no see :-)
  
  You can use parameters like %YEAR%, %MONTH%, %DAY% in the name of the output folder.
  I don't think it's possible to specify a filename in there so you can only do it for the output folder.
  
  Good luck
