I am writing a script that will save files to a new monthly directory for 3 months in advance.

Directory naming convention is this: 04-April 2020

I can get the year and I can get the month name. I can get the month number to return 4, but I need 04.

VBA Code:
FY = Year(Date)

FM = MonthName(Month(DateAdd("m", 3, Date)))

FMN = Month(DateAdd("m", 3, Date))


FY returns 2020
FM returns April
FMN returns 4

Thanks in advance for your assistance!
