Sorry the title is wrong, not "YYYY" but "YYYYMM" and i'm using Windows 7.. Thanx for your help..

you have to compile in this modality
format(now mm/yyyy)
or
label1 = format(now yyyy)
label2 = format(now mm)
label3 = label1 + label2
I that this could be the soluction
good work

FORMAT is a function, so you have to set some variable equal to it. So, for example:

Dim myVar As String
myVar = Format(Date, "YYYYMM")

Should work fine. At least, it did when I ran it. Hope that helps.
