I am running into an error trying to parse out the numbers from a date.
My ulimate goal is to get the number 10042001 from 10/04/2001.
my code:

mydate = date()
myfile = substr(alltr(str(mydate)),1,2)
myfile = myfile + substr(alltr(mydate),4,2)
myfile = myfile + substr(alltr(mydate),7,4)

Can anyone point me in the right direction where I could solve this problem?
Thanks >> Wes
