'File Save As' including a Field Value & date stamp in file name

[#1]

Hi,
I'm a real newbie to this so apologies from the outset if the copy/paste below goes screwy or if the font is a bit iffy!
Scenario: I am running a batch file that opens a qvw that then creates various tabs, including many charts & graphs that I am then exporting to Powerpoint via a macro; again across many different slides into various positions, all of which works fine [sample code below & thanks to the many contributors whose ideas have helped create it].
However, I want to save my qvw file as "X:\xxx\xxx_([Contributor Name])_(Date).qvw" where the [Contributor Name] is a field that has been loaded to Qlikview and that I am making use of internally within a text box. Also, I want to include the date [yyyymmdd] in the file name. I have tried various syntax options & searched the forum for ideas but I've so far drawn a blank on how to do this!!
Can anyone please HELP!?

Sample code:

sub powerpoint
 Set PPApp = CreateObject("Powerpoint.Application")
 PPApp.Visible = True
 Set PPPres = PPApp.Presentations.Open ("C:\xxx\xxx.ppt")
 PPApp.Visible = True
 ActiveDocument.Reload
 ActiveDocument.GetApplication.WaitForIdle
 set s=ActiveDocument.Sheets("Summary")
 ActiveDocument.Sheets("Summary").Activate
 ActiveDocument.GetApplication.WaitForIdle
 ActiveDocument.GetSheetObject("CH28").Restore
 ActiveDocument.GetSheetObject("CH28").CopyBitmapToClipboard
 PPApp.Visible = True
 Set PPSlide = PPPres.Slides(11)
 PPSlide.Shapes.Paste
 PPSlide.Shapes(PPSlide.Shapes.Count).LockAspectRatio = -3
 PPSlide.Shapes(PPSlide.Shapes.Count).Left = 54.1383
 PPSlide.Shapes(PPSlide.Shapes.Count).Top = 286.2812
 PPSlide.Shapes(PPSlide.Shapes.Count).Height = 187.0748
 PPSlide.Shapes(PPSlide.Shapes.Count).Width = 284.297
 ActiveDocument.GetSheetObject("CH28").Minimize
 ActiveDocument.GetApplication.WaitForIdle
 set PPApp = nothing
 set PPPRes = nothing
 set PPSlide = nothing
 ActiveDocument.SaveAs "C:\xxx\xxx_([Contributor Name])_(Date).qvw"
 ActiveDocument.GetApplication.Quit
end sub

Also, has anyone managed to automate the copying of tables from qvw to PowerPoint; as I just can't get it to paste and my macro stops at the point of paste, whatever syntax I use; even though, if I then Ctrl-V in PowerPoint it places the data perfectly. [So far I have got 'round this by splitting my tables out into 1 line text boxes that I then seperately weld back into PowerPoint via macro!]

Thanks in advance!

Got around the save as issue by creating a couple of variables and using the following code:

set aa=ActiveDocument.Variables("vContributor_Name")
mynamevar=aa.GetContent.String

set bb=ActiveDocument.Variables("vPPT_Date")
mydatevar=bb.GetContent.String

and welding as follows:

PPPres.SaveAs "C:\XXX\XXX\FileName - " & [mynamevar] & " - " & [mydatevar] & ".ppt"
