I want to save the same document for every day of each month, all in one day. Its basically a diary of the days work so I would want one for every day of the year that I will organise into separate folders one for each month. So if its the 4th July they can goto the document dated 04 07 2017 and make the entry for the day.

The problem is people keep opening the previous days document make the entry for the day and they don't change the filename date and save over a previous document so I want to create a years worth of documents so staff can just open the one that is dated for that day and they don't have to think about saving the file with the correct date.

Sorry I hope I am making sense.

If possible I would also like the macro to change the date inside the document itself.
