Any idea?
Well... you can make a very simple shell script that will create the date in the format you want and after that run that script weekly via crontab.
The script should be something like this:

Code:
#!/bin/sh
#
mydate = `date "+%m%d%Y"`
mkdir date

In the crontab file you should add something like this:
Code:
15      4       *       *       6       root    /path/to/the/script

		       |		|should replace the radix character

       If the locale's values for p_cs_precedes and n_cs_precedes do not match, the value of nl_langinfo(CRNCYSTR) is unspecified.

       The <langinfo.h> header declares the following as a function:

	 char *nl_langinfo(nl_item);

       Inclusion of <langinfo.h> header may also make visible all symbols from <nl_types.h>.

USAGE

       Wherever possible, users are advised to use functions compatible with those in the ISO C standard to access items of langinfo data. In par-
       ticular, the strftime(3C) function should be used to access date and time information defined in category LC_TIME. The localeconv(3C) func-
       tion should be used to access information corresponding to RADIXCHAR, THOUSEP, and CRNCYSTR.
