How to use macro to rename worksheet with date +"text"

[Guest]

What context must I use to rename a worksheet tab with the the current date

I have success with naming it in a macro with text using
ActiveSheet.Selec
ActiveSheet.Name = "HD

I would like tab to be named "Date-HD" but the TODAY() function doesn't work.....

Thanks for your input

Hi
try
ActiveSheet.Name = Format(date,"mmddyyy") & "-HD"

hi Frank

I tweaked to

ActiveSheet.Name = Format(Date, "mm-dd-yy") & "-HD

and it does what I wanted

Thanks for the help

Always advisable for using dates in the format yyyy mm for sorting purposes.
