MainWindow is the name of your window and FolderItem is the variable name you used to create your folderitem.

Assuming you have used the default Window1, it would be Window1.Title or Self.Title depending on where the code is.

If you are saving a new file, you need a folderitem. You would simply use that to assign the name.

Dim f As New Folderitem
f.name= [your new title string with date]

If you are opening a previously saved file, you probably wouldn't want to change the date until it is saved. This will do that for you:

Note: f should be a property of the window so it doesn't go out of scope until the window closes.

Opening:

Window1.Title=f.name

Saving:

  Dim MyName As String // This could also be a property of the window

  Dim d As New Date
  Dim Today As String

Today =" "+Format(d.Month,"00") +"-"+Format(d.Day,"00")+"-"+Right (Str(d.Year),2)

  MyName=f.Name
  MyName= Left(MyName,len(MyName)-9)+Today

When you save the file, you will create a new file as the folderitem name will be different. If you wished to replace the old file you would delete it first.

f.delete

then change f's name

f.name = NewName

then save the file.
