This would need to be an automated process.<BR /> <BR /> Example: 2132009ReportA1.html<BR /> <BR /> Thanks,<BR /> <BR /> Ryan Fri, 13 Feb 2009 14:06:29 GMT https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Enterprise-Guide/Export-with-a-date-stamp-in-the-file-name/m-p/73983#M7337 deleted_user 2009-02-13T14:06:29Z https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Enterprise-Guide/Export-with-a-date-stamp-in-the-file-name/m-p/73984#M7338 I think you're looking at writing some Macro code to generate the appropriate file name -- there's no way I know of to incorporate dynamic values into the dialogs in EG for exporting an HTML file.
