Route="C:\Users\ywu64\Desktop\1\test data\";
 
dt << save(
Route || "New Data-" ||
Char( Week Of Year( Today() ) ) || "." || Char( Day Of Week( Today() ) ) ||
".jmp"
);

You need to study and learn the code.  Making the change from my original code to this version requires no new information.

All that has to be done, is to concatenate together the elements of the name that you want in the saved name

Names Default To Here( 1 );
dt = Open( "$SAMPLE_DATA/big class.jmp" );

dt << save(
	"$TEMP/" || Char( dt << get name ) || "-" ||
	Char( Week Of Year( Today() ) ) || "." || Char( Day Of Week( Today() ) ) ||
	".jmp"
);
