This is probably very basic....

 

I am downloading a report at the beginning of every month for last month's data.  I want to name the file to be last month's name, so that if I were downloading a report on March 1st, 2005, the file name would be 022005.txt.

 

The following code:

 

SendKeys "C:\Meditech Archives\" & Format(Now(), "mmyyyy") & ".txt"

 

recognizes that today is March whatever and gives me 032005.txt.  How can I tell it to use LAST month's designation?

 

Bonus question - how would I tell it to use the name (February) of the month vs. the month number?

 

Many thanks in advance!

Denise
