Use UnivDate.bat from tip 4835 in the 'Tips & Tricks' at http://www.jsiinc.com
to create the %yy% %mm% and %dd% variables.

Then depending on your settings:

set /a yy=10000%yy%%%10000
if %yy% LSS 10 set yy=0%yy%&goto domm
if %yy% LSS 100 goto domm
set yy=%YY:~2,2%
:domm
set /a mm=100%mm%%%100
if %mm% LSS 10 set mm=0%mm%
set /a dd=100%dd%%%100
if %dd% LSS 10 set dd=0%dd%

Now that you have a 2 digit year (%yy%), month (%mm%), and day (%dd%)
variable for today, you can use them as you wish.

If the preceding does what you intend, remove the word 'echo' from line 5
to actually create the subdirectories.
