I found the solution which works fine. thank you Gysbert for your help..

this is the batch file coding,

@echo off

set yy=%date:~-4%

set mm=%date:~-7,2%

set dd=%date:~-10,2%

set MYDATE=%dd%-%mm%-%yy%

md %MYDATE%

"c:\program files\qlikview\qv.exe" "C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\qlikview\my\Sample apps\button.qvw" 

copy "C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\qlikview\my\Sample apps\button.qvw" %MYDATE%

You'll have to use some sort of batch script. Perhaps something like this (untested):

@echo off

For /f "tokens=2-4 delims=/ " %%a in ('date /t') do (set mydate=%%c-%%a-%%b)

set mydir="%mydate%"

mkdir %mydir%

"c:\program files\qlikview\qv.exe" /r "MyDoc.qvw"

copy "MyDoc.qvw" %mydir%

Put a line like the one below in the script of the qlikview document:

execute cmd.exe /c "c:\myfolder\mybatchscript.bat"
