Hello there! It seems you are trying to save a file in a specific format using VB6. To achieve the format you described (DocumentNo + currentDate + filename.jpg), you can modify the "outputStream.SaveToFile" line to include the desired format. Here's an example of how you can achieve this in VB6: Dim documentNo As String Dim currentDate As String Dim fileName As String Dim savePath As String documentNo = "12345" ' Example DocumentNo currentDate = Format(Date, "yyyymmdd") ' Current Date formatted as YYYYMMDD fileName = "example" ' Example file name without extension savePath = "C:\" & documentNo & currentDate & fileName & ".jpg" outputStream.SaveToFile savePath In this snippet, I used placeholders for DocumentNo, currentDate, and fileName. You can replace them with your actual values or variables. The "savePath" variable concatenates these values to form the desired file path including the .jpg extension. This way, when the file is saved using the modified path, it will follow the format you specified (DocumentNo + currentDate + filename.jpg). I hope this helps clarify how to save the file in the specified format. If you have any more questions or need further assistance, feel free to ask!
