set datestring to the date string of (current date)
set {tid, text item delimiters} to {text item delimiters, ","}
set datestring to (text items 2 through end of datestring) as text
set text item delimiters to tid
tell application "Finder"
set the NewFolder to (make new folder at the desktop with properties
{name:datestring})
end tell
