Hello there, is the sentence below grammatically correct?

"She said she would have written the letter tomorrow moning exactly at 5 o'clock". Must i use " the next day" instead?

Not necessarily. If reference is genuinely to the day following the time of utterance, then 'tomorrow' may be used unchanged.
