Batch file variables in Win2000/NT

I want to create a batch file which will automatically copy a file created on the current day by using the system date variable, i.e. "xcopy /d:%date%"
However the default value of this variable is in the form "Day dd/mm/yy", instead of just "dd/mm/yy". Does anyone know if there is another variable I can use that has a shorter version of the system date, or if a batch file can remove parts of a variable?
