Dynamic Naming, Getting the current Month

[canvasfly]

Hello,
I save my ripped CDs in a folder named after the year and month they were ripped.
for Example: Music\202105\AlbumArtist_Album\Yadda Yadda

I am trying to setup a dynamic naming template to do just that.
Currently I have:
[now_year][Grab],1,2,[date][]\[album_artist]_[album]\etc...

Since the format of [date] is M-D-YYYY..., I am getting "5-" for May. I tried to do a [REPLACE] on the [date] values to replace 5- with 05, so i could then [GRAB] it. That didn't work.
Is there a variable for current Month that i should use? Is there another way to do this, that I'm missing.

Thanks

Re: Dynamic Naming, Getting the current Month

On my Windows 10 Pro PC, the date format for [date] is dd/MM/yyyy.

This is the OS short date format specified in: Control Panel > Region

Try changing the OS short date format to MM-DD-YYYY and using [GRAB]1,2,[date][].

... and if you can't change the short date format M-D-YYYY, try this:
[IF][GRAB]2,2,[date][],=,-,0[GRAB]1,1,[date][],[GRAB]1,2,[date][]

What!? That makes sense. I've journeyed to that config panel to make similar changes for Excel.
Thank you so much.
