Sean and I both tried that too. :-)

Cheers Mark. It looks like you can only replace the formats which are already there – I tried ShootArrangement_9 or ShootArrangement_10 without luck.

Of course, one shouldn’t have to tinker with this…

John, %y is the two-digit year, so YYMMDD would be %y%m%d. The full list is at the bottom of this page: http://www.lua.org/pil/22.1.html

Thanks for the correction on the Win XP folder name, I’ll correct the post on Lightroom Forums.

Minor point – on WIn XP the folder is usually “Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 2″.

Found a way to force the folder format to YYMMDD?
