>I think you're working to hard. Since VBScript references all variables as variants, you might be all to concatentate without explicitly converting it. However, even if you can't you could use the FormatDateTime() function.

I tried all the options for FormatDateTime( .DateLastModified ).
None returned a string in the format "YYMMDD" or "YYYYMMDD".
