Omer Atay:
I apologize. I'm actually a newbie when it comes to coding. However, in some cases I'm able to pick up how things work by looking at code. Can you assist me with what you're describing? Here is the XML that I have so far:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?>
<Macro name="Append Date to Title (dd.mm.yy)" category="Title" description="Modifies the page title to append the date in DD.MM.YY format" version="18">
  <Expression>$Page = GetCurrentPage()</Expression>
  <Expression>$Date = QueryObjects("Page", $Page)[0].dateTime</Expression>
  <Expression>$Title = QueryObjects("Paragraph", $Page)[0].text</Expression>
  <Expression>$ShortYear = DateTime_Year($Date)</Expression>
  <Expression>$ShortYear = ($ShortYear -= 2000)</Expression>
  <Expression>QueryObjects("Paragraph", $Page)[0].text = ((((($ShortYear &amp; ".") &amp; (DateTime_Month($Date) &amp; ".")) &amp; DateTime_Day($Date)) &amp; " - ") &amp; $Title)</Expression>
</Macro>

DMills: You can do something like: ForEach $page in GetCurrentSection().pages, and then do everything under that for loop using $page instead of GetCurrentPage().
