Well, maybe it is simple, but it works great. If anybody wants to automate having a group of PDF documents, or whatever else you have selected, moved to a folder that gets created, with the days date as a name, within a specified folder, along with a label (mine is red - unread article), let me know. I use it as I download many PDF news articles to my desktop. I then select the PDF's and automator creates a new folder in my articles folder (Jan 06), labels the latter folder red for unread, and takes the files on the desktop and moves them to the trash and empties the trash.
