I don't know of any way to dynamically name a file in macros. However, you can do it very simply using the following code.

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1.     DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputTable, "TableName", "Excel97-Excel2003Workbook(*.xls)", "C:\" & Format(Now(), "ddmmyyyy") & ".xls", False, "", 0, acExportQualityPrint
