Hi,

 

I would suggest looking at this event: FileUIEvents.OnFileSaveAsDialog

 

From the programming help:

>> >>

Remarks
This notification is also sent when the Save command is executed the first time for a file that has not been previously saved. By responding to this event the client can override Inventor's standard behavior of displaying the Save As dialog and provide their own interface to determine the new filename.

<< <<

 

Your code could get the current date and create the folder with the name that you want. I am not finding an existing example that does this but I believe it could meet your requirement. 

 

There are several posts on this forum related to the OnFileSaveAsDialog event.

 

Thanks,

Wayne
