Open Text File and save as todays date

Hi,

I am a complete novice in VB.

Here is what I need if anyone could help me

I want to open a text file into excel and save it in a path as today’s date

The problem I have is that the file name changes daily, so I have to search in the text document for a certain field, and as at today’s date.

If someone could write this, using examples:

Drive = X Drive / Downloads

File Name = Blocks

Many thanks
